GIVEN

The cost of 17m of cloth is rupees 2303.50

TO FIND

what length of this cloth can be purchased from rupees 8401.

SOLUTION

We can simply solve the above problem as follows;

It is given,

Cost of 17 meters cloth = Rs 230.50

So,

Cost of 1 meter cloth = 230.50/17 = Rs 135.5

Now,

We have to find the length of the cloth purchased from Rs 8401
