1. 360
2. 320
3. 400
4. None of these

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : None of these

Given:

Total cloth = 37.5 m

He made 8 pieces of 1 meter cloth

Calculation:

Length of one piece of cloth = 1/8 = 0.125 m

Number of pieces of cloth of 37.5 m cloth = 37.5/0.125 = 300

∴ The required answer is option (4), none of these.
