Answer 1

Answer:

163 fabric needed to make 250 collars.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1.5 m

Width =137 cm

Number of order = 250

Use fabric = 65%

We  need to calculate the actual length need to make a collar

Using given data

$Actual\ length =Length\times use\ fabric$

Put the value into the formula

$Actual\ length =1.5\times\dfrac{65}{100}$

$Actual\ length=0.975\ m$

We need to calculate the total length of fabric

Using formula for total length

$total\ length=Actual\ length\times Number\ of\ collars$

Put the value into the formula

$total\ length=0.975\times250$

$total\ length=243.75\ m$

We need to calculate the number of fabric

Using formula for number of fabric

$Number\ of\ fabric=\dfrac{total length}{length}$

Put the value into the formula

$Number\ of\ fabric=\dfrac{243.75}{1.5}$

$Number\ of\ fabric=162.5\approx 163$

Hence, 163 fabric needed to make 250 collars.
