Question

$\text{A shirt is made from}\frac{25}{8}m\text{of cloth. The cloth}\text{needed to make 6 such shirts can be}\text{calculated using}$

• A. Equation A
• B. Equation B
• C. Equation C
• D. Equation D

Answer 1

The correct option is A Equation A

$\text{Length of cloth needed to tailor 1 shirt}=\frac{25}{8}m$

$\text{Length of cloth needed to tailor 6 shirts}=\text{Cloth needed for 1 shirt}\times 6=\frac{25}{8}m\times 6=\frac{(25\times 6)}{(8\times 1)}m=\frac{150}{8}m=\frac{75}{4}m=18\frac{3}{4}m$

$\therefore \text{The total length of cloth needed for 6}\text{shirts}=18\frac{3}{4}m.$

$\text{Hence, the multiplication equation will}\text{be:}$


$\text{Comparing this with the given}\text{equations, we find:}$


$\therefore \text{The cloth needed for 6 shirts is}$ $\text{calculated using equation A}$
