उत्तर
Given, total display boards = 24
Length of one display boards = 1 m + 50 cm
= 1 m + `50/100` m ...[∵ 1 m = 100 cm]
= (1 + 0.5) m
= 1.5 m
Breadth of one display board = 1 m
∴ Perimeter of one display board = 2 × (Length + Breadth)
= 2 × (1.5 + 1) m
= 2 × 2.5 m
= 5 m
Length of strip = 100 m ...[Given]
Now, number of boards will be framed
= `"Length of strip"/"Perimeter of one board"`
= `100/5`
= 20
This means that out of 24 only 20 boards will be framed.
Number of board left unframed = 24 – 20 = 4
∴ Length of the strip required for remaining boards
= 4 × Perimeter of one board
= 4 × 2(1.5 + 1)
= 4 × 2 × 2.5
= 20 m
