    Smriti used \[40%\] of a piece of  \[6-m\] long cloth to make \[4\] flags and the remainder to make some skirts. If each skirt required \[1.2\,\,m\] of cloth, how many skirts did she make?

    A) \[13\]                            

    B)                    \[30\]                

    C)                    \[4\]                             

    D)                    \[3\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    \[40%\] of \[6\,\,m\] long cloth is used for flags and the remaining for skirts. \[\therefore \]Length of cloth used for skirts \[=(100-40)%\]of\[6\,\,m\] \[=60%\]of\[6\,\,m\] \[=60%\]of\[600\,\,cm\] \[=\frac{60}{100}\times 600\,\,cm=360\,\,cm\] Length of cloth needed for each skirt\[=1.2\,\,m=120\,\,cm\] \[\therefore \]No. of skirts\[=\frac{360\,\,cm}{120\,\,cm}=3\]
