Hello,

Fabrics are to be cut to certain sizes.
Example;
24 pieces of 225 cm
32 pieces of 175 cm
88 pieces of 150 cm
24 pieces of 75 cm
32 pieces from 50 cm
80 pieces from 35 cm
These require 304 meters of fabric. One ball of fabric is 6 meters. 51 balls of fabric is enough without any loss, but it will be lost.


225 cm
175cm
150 cm and
50 cm makes a total of 6 meters, but their numbers are different.
I need to adjust it so that the fabric to be used is minimal.

The length of the fabric can be 6 meters in some cases, 6 meters and 3 meters in some cases, and in some cases 6 meters, 3 meters, 8 meters.
It has to be cut. Let the amount of wastage and loss in fabrics be minimal.
How can I do this in excel?


Thank you.
