Question

80m of cloth are required to make 36 shirts. How many cloth required to make 45 shirts?

Answer 1

Answer:

80m --------> 36 shirts

x m ----------> 45 shirts

Thus by the unitary method, the value of x will be;

36 × x = 80 × 45

x = 80 × 9 × 5 / 36

x = 80×5/4

x = 20 × 5

x = 100 shirts.

Answer 2

Answer:

100m

Step-by-step explanation:

80/36= takes 2 2/9 or 20/9 to make one shirt

20/9*45 shirts=100m
