Question

Ravi purchased 3 shirts and 4 pants, the cost of pant is 150 and he paid total 900 to the shop keeper,
then find the cost of shirt.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, given that marked price of the shirt is ₹ 300, the person bought it at 20% discount. This means he paid 300 - (20% of 300) to buy the shirt.

=> 300 - (0.2*300)

=> 300 - 60 = ₹ 240 -> cost price of shirt.

In order to sell the shirt at 20% profit, he needs to add 20% of cost price to itself.

Remember that profit or loss is always calculated on cost price, and not on the marked price.

=> 240 + (20% of 240)

=> 240 + (0.2*240)

=> 240 + 48

=> ₹ 288

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost of 1 pants =150

Then cost of 4 pants = 150×4

=600 rupees

Then cost of shirt =900-600

=300

Then cost of 1 shirt=300/3

=100

Then the cost of each shirt =₹100
