It is given that, to stitch a single shirt, we need 2 m 15 cm cloth.

=> Cloth required to stitch one shirt = 200 + 15

=> Cloth required to stitch one shirt = 215 cm

It is also given that, length of cloth is 40 m.

=> Length of cloth = (40 × 100) cm

=> Length of cloth = 4000 cm.

Number of shirts can be stitched = 4000/215

=> Number of shirts can be stitches = 18.6

As number os shirts can't be in decimal, therefore we can say that 18 shirts can be stitched and 130 cm cloth will remain.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Cloth required to stitch one shirt = 2 m 15 cm = 2 x 100 cm + 15 cm = 215 cm

Length of cloth = 40 m = 40 x 100 cm = 4000 cm

Number of shirts can be stitched = 4000 / 215

Therefore, 18 shirts can be stitched and 130 cm (1 m 30 cm) cloth will remain.
