Q.9. To stitch a shirt, 2 m 15 cm cloth is needed. Out of 40 m cloth, how many shirts can be stitched and how much cloth will remain?

Given
Total length of the cloth = 40 m
= 40 × 100 cm = 4000 I’m
Cloth required to stitch one shirt = 2 m 15 cm
= 2 × 100 + 15 cm = 215 cm
Number of shirts that can be stitched out of 4000 cm = \(\frac{4000}{215} \) = 18 shirts
