A tailor has 37.5 metres of cloth and he has to make 8 pieces out of a metre of cloth. How many pieces can he make out of this cloth ?

  • A.300
  • B.360
  • C.400
  • D.450

Answer: A

He can make 300 pieces.

Each metre of cloth gives 8 pieces, so the number of pieces is

\[ 37.5 \times 8 = 300 \]

The other options would need different amounts of cloth: 360 pieces need 45 m, 400 pieces need 50 m and 450 pieces need 56.25 m.
