Solution
The correct option is
D
199 inches
Total length of the sheet
= 6 meters
1 meter = 39 inches (approximately)
Let's calculate the total length
of the cloth first.
⟹
1 meter = 39 inches
⟹
6 meters = 39
×
6
inches
= 234 inches
Out of 234 inches, 35 inches of
of the sheet is removed as scrap.
Hence, the useful length
of the cloth is:
⟹
234 inches - 35 inches
= 199 inches
Thus, useful length of the cardboard
sheet left is 199 inches.
