    House Co also plans to manufacture 90 sofas in June. Below are some extracts from the cost card for a
    sofa:

    Materials – 10m2 of fabric @$50 per m2
    Assembly labour – 8 hours @$15 per hour

    How many meters of fabric should be purchased if 10% of material is wasted during the production process? (fill in the blank)

    Hello
    I know the answer to the above question is 1000m2 after adding back the materials wasted.
    But the question is asking for the answer in meters.
    however the 1000 is in m2.
    is it okay to answer in m2 in the exam even though the answer is for meters, as that’s how its been answered in the BPP kit.
    and if the answer has to be in meters, then what would the answer be?

    The answer can only be in m2 for this question. It would be impossible to give an answer just in meters.
