Answer 1

$\huge\dag\mathbb\red{Solution} \dag$

Let material bought for trousers and shirts be 2x meters and 3x meters respectively.

Cost price of 2x metres of trouser material at Rs. 90 per metre = Rs ( 90 × 2x ) = Rs 180x and

Cost price of 3x metres of shirt material at Rs. 50 per metre = Rs ( 50 × 3x ) = Rs 150x

Given , profit in case of shirt material = 12%

$∴ Its \: S.P. =Rs(150× \frac{110}{100} ) = Rs \: 168x$

Also , profit in case of trouser material = 10%

$∴ Its \: S.P. =Rs(180× \frac{110}{100} )=198x$

∴ Total selling price = Rs. ( 168x + 198x )

= Rs. 366x

But the total selling price is given as Rs. 36600.

$∴366x=36600 \\ x= \frac{36660}{3666} =100$

Thus, the trouser material purchased

= 2 × 100m

= 200m
