Answer 1

Tip: Recall the concept of basic mathematical operations.

Given:

The total length of the cloth$=75m$

Cloth needed to stitch one curtain$=3m\hspace 440cm$

To find:

The number of curtains that can be stitched.

The remaining length of cloth.

Explanation:

Length of one curtain$=3m\hspace 440cm$

We know, $1m=100cm$

$\implies 3m\hspace440cm=(3\times100)+40\\\implies 340cm$

The total length of cloth$=75m$

$\implies75\times100=7500$

The number of curtains$=\frac{Total-length}{length -of-one- curtain}$

$\implies\frac{7500}{340}$

$\implies\approx22curtains$

Now, the total cloth needed for $22$ curtains will be

$\implies 22\times340cm$

$\implies 7480cm$

The remaining cloth will be

$\implies7500-7480=20cm$

$\implies0.2m$

$22$ curtains can be made using the given cloth and there will be $0.2m$ cloth remaining.
