The cost of \(3\frac{1}{2}\) meters of cloth is Rs \(166\frac{1}{4}\). What is the cost of one metre of cloth?

Answer»

Cost of \(3\frac{1}{2}\,m\) of cloth \(=Rs\,166\frac{1}{4}\)

Cost of \(1\,m\) of cloth \(=\) Cost of \(3\frac{1}{2}\,m\) of cloth \(\div\) \(3\frac{1}{2}\)

\(=Rs\,166\frac{1}{4}\div3\frac{1}{2}\)

\(=Rs\,\frac{665}{4}\div\frac{7}{2}\)

\(=Rs\,\frac{665}{4}\times\frac{2}{7}\)

\(=Rs\,\frac{1330}{28}\)

\(=Rs\,47\frac{1}{2}\)

Cost of \(1\,m\) of cloth \(=Rs\,47\frac{1}{2}\)
