Answer:

cloth needed to stitch a shirt = 2m15cm = 215cm

total cloth is there to stitch shirts = 40m = 4000cm

how many shirts can be stitched by using 4000cm cloth

now divide 4000 by 215 = quotient is 18, remainder is 130

18 shirts can be stitched by using 4000cm cloth and 130cm cloth will remain in tha
