an industrial loom weaves 0.128 metres of cloth every second . approximately , how many seconds will it take for the loom to weave 27 metre of cloth ?
"explanation : let the time required by x seconds . then , more cloth means more time ( direct proportion ) so , 0.128 : 1 : : 27 : x = > x = { \ color { blue } \ frac { 27 \ times 1 } { 0.128 } } = > x = 210.94 so time will be approx 211 seconds answer : a"
divide(27, 0.128)
