Answer:
The new length is 13.5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the new length of the cloth she wants to use
What we know from the question is that she is making a reduction of 10% from an initial of 15 meters
Thus, the length she is to use can be calculated by first getting what 10% of 15 meters is
Mathematically, that would be ;
10/100 * 15 = 1.5 meters
We now subtract this from the total of 15 meters
= 15 meters - 1.5 meters = 13.5 meters
Selection B is appropriate.
_____
It takes 12 times as long to fill the whole tank as it does to fill 1/12 of the tank.
.. 12 * (1/3 hour) = (1/3)*12 hour
1/9=0.11111.....
so the correct option is (a).
