Question

A shopkeeper bought 16 shirts, the cost of each being ₹ 175. He sold five of them at the rate of ₹ 160 per shirt. At what price per shirt should he sell the remaining shirts to make a profit of ₹ 90?

Answer 1

$16 \times 175 = 2800 \\ 160 \times 5 = 800 \\ 2800 - 800 = 2000 \\ 2000 + 90 = 2090 \\ \frac{2090}{11} = 190 \: each \: shirt$
