Answer» Answer: HASAN bought 200m of trouser MATERIAL Explanation: Let us assume that Hasan bought x meters of trouser material so the SHIRT material Hasan bought is 3/2x = 1.5x Cost of the trouser material is 90x and cost of shirt material is 50*1.5 x = 75x He sells shirt material at a profit of 12%. So sales price is (12+100)*75x/100 = 84X He sells trouser material for a profit of 10% so sales price is (10+100)*90x/100 = 99x Now total sale is 36,600 99x + 84x = 36,600 183x = 36600 x = 200 Therefore Hasan bought 200 m of trouser material |
