विकल्प

• A is true, but R is false.

• A is false, but R is true.

• Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

• Both A and R are true, and R is not the correct explanation of A.

Answer 1

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

Readymade garments are cost-effective because factories mass-produce them, lowering the cost per piece. Conversely, custom-made clothing requires individual measurements, unique pattern drafting, and specialised tailoring for just one person, making it highly labour-intensive and expensive. Therefore, the high skill and effort needed for custom tailoring perfectly explain why ready-made clothing is much cheaper.
