If 25 men can weave 120 m of cloth in a day, how many metres of cloth will be woven by 35 men in a day?

Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we will use the unitary method.

### Step 1: Find the amount of cloth woven by 1 man in a day.
We know that 25 men can weave 120 meters of cloth in a day. To find out how much 1 man can weave, we divide the total amount of cloth by the number of men.

\[ \text{Cloth woven by 1 man} = \frac{120 \text{ m}}{25 \text{ men}} = 4.8 \text{ m} \]

### Step 2: Find the amount of cloth woven by 35 men in a day.
Now that we know how much 1 man can weave, we can find out how much 35 men can weave by multiplying the amount woven by 1 man by 35.

\[ \text{Cloth woven by 35 men} = 4.8 \text{ m} \times 35 \text{ men} \]

### Step 3: Calculate the total cloth woven by 35 men.
Now we perform the multiplication:

\[ \text{Cloth woven by 35 men} = 4.8 \times 35 = 168 \text{ m} \]

### Final Answer:
Thus, 35 men can weave **168 meters** of cloth in a day.
