Answer 1

Given :-

• Cost of dress is 30 more than 5 times the cost of belt.

• Total amount = ₹ 570

To find :-

• Cost of the dress and the belt

Solution :-

Let us take the cost of belt be x,

Then cost of dress will be 30 + 5x (30 more than its 5 times)

$\fbox{The total price costed is ₹ 570}$

$→ 30 + 5x + x = 570 \\→30 + 6x = 570 \\ → 6x = 570 \\→x=\frac{570}{6} \\→x=₹95$

Thus, the cost of belt = ₹ 95

Cost of Dress = (30 + 5×95) = ₹ 505
