Answer 1

Question:

To stitch a pant 1 m 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 36 m cloth, how many pants can be stitched and how much cloth will remain?

Solution:

Cloth required to stitch 1 pant = 1 m 15 cm

= 100 cm + 15 cm [∵ 1 m = 100 cm]

= 115 cm

Total cloth = 36 m = 36 x 100 cm = 3600 cm

Therefore number of pants stitched = 3600115

Hence, 31 pants can be stitched and cloth left over is 35 cm.
