If a strip of cloth 24 inches long will shrink to 22 inches when washed how many inches will a 36 inch strip be after shrinking?
Well, isn't that just a happy little problem to solve! If a 24-inch strip shrinks to 22 inches, that's a difference of 2 inches. So, for a 36-inch strip, you can expect it to shrink by the same proportion, which means it would shrink by 2/24 or 1/12 of its length. Therefore, a 36-inch strip would shrink by 3 inches, leaving you with a final length of 33 inches after washing. Happy shrinking!
