Solution

The problem states that the tailor makes 45 cuts per minute and each roll requires 10 cuts to be divided into pieces.

Step 1: Determine how many rolls the tailor can cut in one minute. Since each roll requires 10 cuts, the tailor can cut 45/10 = 4.5 rolls per minute.

Step 2: Determine how many rolls the tailor can cut in 24 minutes. Multiply the number of rolls cut per minute by the number of minutes: 4.5 rolls/minute * 24 minutes = 108 rolls.

So, the correct answer is 108 rolls.
