Solution

$T o t a l c l o t h = 15 m = 15.00 m c l o t h r e q u i r e d t o s t i c h a t r o u s e r = 1 m 30 c m = 1.30 m = 1.3 m$
To find the number of trousers that can be stitched, we will divide $15.00 m$ by $1.3 m$ :
$15.00 \div 1.3 \Rightarrow Q u o t i e n t = 11 a n d R e m a i n d e r = 0.7$
Hence, $11$ trousers can be stitched, and $0.7 m$ = $70 c m$ cloth will remain.
