A tailor had to cut a certain number of shirts from rolls of full-length fabrics. He cut each roll into 11 pieces of equal length. He cut the rolls of fabrics at a rate of 50 pieces per minute. How many rolls of fabric would he be able to cut in 25 minutes? Correct Answer 125 rolls

  • To make 11 pieces of equal length from 1 full roll, we need to cut 10 times.
  • Rate of cutting = 50 pieces per minute.
  • Therefore, no. of pieces in 25 minutes = 50 × 25 = 1250.

⇒ No. of rolls cut in 25 minutes

= No. of pieces cut in 25 minutes ÷  No. of cuts required for 1 roll

= 1250 ÷ 10

= 125.
