Solution

Step 1.Make the same unit
$2 m 20 c m = 2 + 0.2 = 2.2 m [\sin c e 1 m = 0.01 c m]$
Step 2.Find the length of cloth
Since , length of cloth required for one shirt $= 2.2 m$
Therefore ,
length of cloth required for $16$ such shirts $= 2.2 x 16$
$= 35.2 m$
Hence the length of cloth required for making $16$ shirts is $35.2 m$ or $35 m 20 c m [\sin c e 1 m = 100 c m]$
