The factory has made 358 calico robes and 314 of the same satin robes. satin spent 132 meters more than satin. How much calico and satin have been spent together?

1) Let’s find how many more dressing gowns were sewn from chintz than from satin.
We subtract 314 from 358 robes.
Will be:
358 – 314 = 44 robes.
2) Determine how much fabric is required for one robe.
To do this, we divide the known difference in fabric by the difference in the number of robes.
We get:
132/44 = 3 meters of fabric.
3) Let’s find how many robes were sewn in total.
358 + 314 = 672 robes.
4) Find the total length of chintz and satin.
Multiply 672 robes by 3 meters of fabric.
672 * 3 = 2016 meters of fabric.
Checking.
3 * 358 – 3 * 314 = 1074 – 942 = 132 m.
Answer: 2016 m of fabric.
