Question
If 24 trousers of equal size can be prepared in 54 metres of cloth, what length of cloth is required for each trouser?
Solution
\[ \text{Cloth needed to prepare 24 trousers = 54 m}\]
\[ \therefore \text{Length of the cloth required for each trousers} = 54 \div 24 = \frac{54}{24} = \frac{9}{4} m = 2\frac{1}{4} \text{metres}\]
