Question

The cost of cloth is directly proportional to the length. A 3.2 m length of cloth costs $38. Work out the cost of a 2.4 m length of cloth. *

Answer 1

Answer:

$ 28.5

Step-by-step explanation:

since 3.2 m length cloth cost 38 dollars

therefore 1 m length cloth cost 38/3.2 dollars

now

2.4 m length cloth cost 38 x 2.4 /3.2 =57/2

= 28.5 dollars
