Let the length of cotton cloth be 'x' and silk cloth be 'y'
(1) Cotton cloth is 7 less than 3 times silk :
3y = x + 7
x - 3y + 7 = 0
Total length of both is 193
x + y = 193
These two are equation required to length of each type

let the lenght of silk cloth be x
According to question
x+3x-7=193
4x-7=193
4x=193+7
4x=200
x=200/4
x=50
3x-7=50×3-7
=143
