Question

Tarak Mehta sold a pair of Tshirt and jeans at 25% profit. The profit obtained on Tshirt was 20%. Had he reduced the both cost price of the Tshirt and selling price of the Tshirt by Rs. 200, his profit on the pair would have risen to 30%. Earlier cost price of the jeans was Rs.80 less than half of the selling price of the Tshirt. What price should he mark on a pair of Tshirt and jeans to earn a profit of 50%?

Answer 1

Solution:

Let the cost price of each T shirt=t

The cost price of each jeans=j

The selling price of T shirt=a

The selling price of jeans=b

                     According to the question

a+b=1.25(t+j) →(1)

a=1.2t →(2)

(a+b-200)=1.3(t+p-200) →(3)

j=$\frac{a}{2}$$-80$ →(4)

From (1), (2), (3) and (4)

t=Rs. 800

j=Rs. 400

a=Rs. 960

b=Rs. 540

Total cost of T shirt and jeans=800+400=1200

Marked price=1200×1.5

                     =Rs. 1800.

Final answer: Marked price on pair of T shirt and jeans is Rs. 1800.

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs. 1800 price he have to mark on a pair of T- shirt and jeans to earn a profit of 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of each Tshirt = s

Cost of every Jeans = p

Selling cost of each Tshirt = h

What's more, Selling cost of every Jeans = a

From question

h + a = 1.25 (s + p) … … .(I)

h = 1.2s … … (ii)

(h + a - 200) = 1.3 (s + p - 200) … . (iii)

Also, p = h -80 … … … (iv)

2

Tackling the above arrangement of condition we get,

s = 800, p = 400, h = 960 and, a = 540

Complete expense cost of some Tshirt and pants = 800 + 400 = 1200

Required stamped cost = 1200 × 1.5 = Rs.1800
