MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Ways to keep your clothes looking new:

1. Pick the right washer setting. Using a gentle cycle that eliminates a lot of the wear and tear your washer can inflict.

2. Buy some mesh laundry bags. A mesh laundry bag can help protect your clothing from any damage.

3. Wash clothes inside- out the machine. That spin cycle can put a lot of wear and tear on items, so it's much better to have the inside of your clothes take the brunt of damage rather than the outside

4. Choose the right detergent. Certain detergents can keep colors from fading, prevent shrinkage, and are made for delicate fabrics. Also, powdered detergents can be harsher on clothes, so choose for a liquid one.

5. Always use cold water. Washing in cold water is not only extends the life of your clothing, but it's also better for your wallet and the environment, since it takes more energy to heat up all that water for your washing machine.

6. Air dry. Using hot air to dry your clothes will also shrink them - and even more so in most cases!
