respectively. His total sale is 336,600.
How much trouser material did he buy?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cloth material shebuy for shirt=3x

let the cloth material she buy for trouser=2x

cost for 3x m=50*3x=150x

cost of 2x m=90*2x=180x

profit in shirt material=12%

S. P of shirt material =Rs. 150x +12% of 150x

=Rs. 168x

profit in trouser material =10%

S. P of trouser material =Rs. 180x+Rs.(10/100*180x)

=Rs. 198x

so, Rs. 168x+Rs.198x=Rs.33660

=Rs. 366x=Rs.33660

=x=336600/366=919.672

Amount of trousers material =2x=2*919.672=Rs.1839.344
