Question 1

If the cost of 7m of cloth is Rs 294, find the cost of 5m cloth.

Answer 1

Cost of 7m of cloth = Rs 294

Applying unitary method, where firstly we find the value of one unit and then the value of required number of units.

$\therefore$ Cost of 1m of cloth = $\frac{294}{7}$ = Rs 42

$\therefore$ Cost of 5m of cloth = 42 $\times$ 5 = Rs 210

Thus, the cost of 5m of cloth is Rs 210.
