Answer
Length of cloth available = 25 m
= (25 × 100) cm
= 2,500 cm
Length of cloth required to stitch a trouser = 1 m 30 cm
= (1 × 100 + 30) cm
= 130 cm
Dividing 2,500 by 130:
Quotient = 19, remainder = 30.
So, 19 trousers can be stitched and 30 cm of cloth will remain.
Hence, the number of trousers that can be stitched is 19 and the length of the remaining cloth is 30 cm.
