The longest length of carpet is 160 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the total ratio(units) of the carpet is 9(2+3+4). So first, you have to find the length of carpet in 1 unit :

$9 \: units = 360 \: cm$

$1 \: unit = 360cm \div 9$

$1 \: unit = 40 \: cm$

Next, you have to find the length of carpet in 4 ratio as the question wants the longest length :

$4 \: units = 40 \: cm \times 4$

$4 \: units = 160 \: cm$
