A certain industrial loom weaves 0.128 meters of cloth every second.Approximately how many seconds will it take for the loom to weave 25 meters of cloth?

• A. 205
• B. 200
• C. 180
• D. 195

Answer 1

The correct option is D 195

Given,

Let the time required by $x$ seconds.

$\Rightarrow 0.128:1::25:x$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{1\times 25}{0.128}$

$\therefore x=195.31$

So time will be approx $195$ seconds
