2.8 meter= 2800cms

To solve this, we can create a simple algebraic equation:
45x=2800
Divide both sides by 45.
(45x)/45=(2800)/45
x=62.222

You can make 62 full pieces.

To find the waste, multiply the numbers of pieces by the length of each.
62*45
=2790
2800-2790
=10 centimeters

There would be 10 centimeters of wasted linen.

Hope this helps!
