material needed for
1 pair of Trousers --> 10u
1 jacket --> 12u
2 jackets --> 24u

0.5m more used to make 2 jackets than a pair of trousers, so
24u - 10u = 14u
14u --> 0.5m
2u --> 1/14 m

5 jackets --> 60u --> 30 x 1/14m = 2 1/7 m

cheers.

treat the mass of the tin and iron nails as separate items...

1/2 = 4/8
