A man buys a shirt and a trousers for rupees 371.If the trouser is costs 12% more than the shirt find the cost of shirt
Answers
Answer: 175
Step by step explanation:
Cost of shirt and Trouser = 371
Trouser costs 12% more than shirt.
Trouser price = 12 × 100
= 112
Total Price = 112+100
= 212
▪️ 212 = 371▪️
100 = 371×100/12
=> 375
Therefore, cost of Trouser is 375
◼️ By another method ◼️
➡️ Let the cost price of the trousers = x
➡️ cost price of the shirt = 12% more than cost price
If trousers,
= x ( 100 + 12) /100
= x × 112 /100
= (112x / 100 )
According to the question,
▪️ Cost price of the shirt + cost prise of pair of trousers = 371 ▪️
x + ( 112 x /100 ) = 371
( 100x + 112x ) /100 = 371
212x = 371 × 100
x = ( 7× 53 × 4 × 25 )/ ( 4 × 53 )
x = 7 × 25
x = 175
Therefore ,
Cost price of the trousers is 175
