An industrial loom weaves 0.128 metres of cloth every second. Approximately, how many seconds will it take for the loom to weave 25 metres of cloth?

  • A.187
  • B.195
  • C.250
  • D.844

Answer: B

Divide the length required by the rate of weaving:

\[ t = \frac{25}{0.128} = 195.3 \text{ seconds} \]

so about 195 seconds.

A quick check on the size of the answer: at roughly 0.128 m per second the loom weaves a little under 8 metres per minute, so 25 metres must take somewhat over three minutes - which rules out both 250 and 844 immediately.
