Question
A tailor had a number of shirt pieces to cut from a roll of fabric. He cut each roll of equal length into 10 pieces. He cut at the rate of 45 cuts a minute. How many rolls would be cut in 24 minutes ?
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:
-
First, we need to find out how many cuts the tailor makes in 24 minutes. Since he cuts at a rate of 45 cuts per minute, we multiply 45 by 24. This gives us 1080 cuts.
-
Next, we need to find out how many rolls of fabric the tailor can cut from these 1080 cuts. Since each roll is cut into 10 pieces, we divide 1080 by 10. This gives us 108 rolls.
So, the tailor would be able to cut 108 rolls in 24 minutes.
