    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total cloth length = 51 yards

    Cloth requirement for each outfit = 2 2/5 = 12/5 yards

    Total possible number of outfits can be calculated by dividing to total cloth length by the length of each outfit.

    Total outfits = 51 / (12*5)

    => (51*5) / 12

    => 21.25

    As the number of suits is always an interger, so the total number of outfits made by 51 yards of clocth are 21
