Answer:
The number of quilt that can be made from 811 handkerchief is 32 quilts and the left over handkerchief is 11 handkerchiefs.
Step-by-step explanation:
He has a 811 handkerchiefs in all and he wants to use it to make quilts. He can only use 25 handkerchiefs to make 1 quilt. The number of quilt he can make with 811 handkerchiefs can be computed by dividing 811 by 25 but the result will be in decimal . So we find the nearest number to 811 that can divide 25 without remainder.
The nearest number to 811 that can divide 25 without remainder is 800. Dividing 800 by 25 , you get 32.
800/25 = 32
This means 800 handkerchiefs will produce 32 quilt. Since 811 handkerchief is available the number of left over handkerchief will be 811 - 800 = 11 handkerchief.
The number of quilt that can be made from 811 handkerchief is 32 quilts and the left over handkerchief is 11 handkerchiefs.
