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)=Rs180x and
Cost price of 3x metres of shirt material at Rs. 50 per metre =Rs(50×3x)=Rs150x
Given, profit in case of shirt material = 12%
∴ Its S.P. =Rs(150×
100
112
)=Rs168x
Also, profit in case of trouser material = 10%
∴ Its S.P. =Rs(180×
100
110
)=198x
∴ Total selling price =Rs.(168x+198x)
=Rs.366x
But the total selling price is given as Rs. 36600.
∴366x=36600⇒x=
3666
36660
=100
Thus, the trouser material purchased
=2×100m
=200m
