Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Gaurav bought x metres of trouser material

So the shirt material gaurav bought is 3/2x=1.5x

Cost of trouser material is 90x and cost of shirt material is 50*1.5 = 75x

He sells shirt material at profit of 12% . So sales price is (12+100)*75x/100 = 84x

He sells trouser material at profit of 10% . So sales price is

(10+100)*90x /100 = 99x

Now total sell is 36600

99x + 84x = 36600

183x = 36000

x = 200

Hence , gaurav bought 200 m of trouser material.
