To find the total lace length, add 2/5 and 3/4. Convert 2/5 to 8/20 and 3/4 to 15/20. Then, add 8/20 and 15/20 to get 23/20, which is more than 1 meter.

class 6 Mathematics Textbook Chapter 7 question answer
To determine if the lace is sufficient, add 2/5 and 3/4. The common denominator is 20. Convert 2/5 to 8/20 and 3/4 to 15/20. Adding the fractions gives:
8/20 + 15/20 = 23/20.
This simplifies to 1 3/20 meters, which is greater than the 1-meter perimeter. Therefore, Geeta and Shamim’s lace is more than enough to cover the tablecloth’s border. This calculation shows how adding fractions with different denominators gives the required total.
