Solution

Length of the display board =1 m 50 cm=1.5 m
Breadth of the display board =1 m
Perimeter of the one display board
2×(length+breadth)=2×(1.5 m×1 m)=2×2.5 m=5 m
Perimeter of the display board
5m×24=120 m
Number of boards will be framed using this strip =1005=20 strips
Length of the aluminium strip required for the remaining boards =(120100)m=20 m.
