Question

To stich a shirt ,2m 15cm cloth is needed.Out of 40m cloth, how many shirts can be stiched and how much cloth will remain

Answer 1

$\large\bf\underline{Given:-}$

• To stitch a shirt 2m 15cm cloth is needed.
• Total length of cloth = 40m

$\large\bf\underline {To \: find:-}$

• Number of shirts can be stitched from 40 m cloth and length of cloth that will remain.

$\huge\bf\underline{Solution:-}$

To stitch 1 shirt length of cloth needed = 2m 15cm

we know that,

$\bf \ddag \boxed{ \bf \: 1m = 100cm}$

Converting 2m into cm

➝ 2 × 100

➝ 200cm

So, 215 cm cloth is needed to stitch 1 shirt.

➝ Total length of cloth = 40m

➝ Total length of cloth = 40 × 100

➝ Total length of cloth = 4000cm

Total number of shirts can be stitched from 4000cm cloth =Total length of cloth/ length of cloth needed for stitching 1 shirt

Total no. of shirts = 4000/215

$215)4000(18 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 215 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \underline{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 1850 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 1720 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \underline{ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 130$

• Quotient = 18
• Remainder = 130

Number of shirts that can be stiched from 4000cm cloth is 18 and 130cm cloth will remain.
