Answer 1

Let Hasan bought 2x m of trouser material and 3x m of the shirt material.

 

Per metre selling price(S.P) of the trouser material = ₹90+90×12/100

= 90 + 1.2× 9

= 90 + 10.8

=₹100.80

 

Per metre selling price(S.P) of trouser of shirt material

= ₹50+ 50× 10/100

= ₹ 50 + 5

=₹55

 

Given: total amount of sale= ₹ 36660

100.80 x (2x) + 55 x (3x) = ₹36660

 

201.60 x + 165x = 36660

 

366.60 x  = 36660

 

X= 36660/366.60

x = 100

Trouser material = 2x m = (2×100)m = 200m.

Hasan bought 200 m of trouser material.
