Question

the combined cost of a shirt and apair of trousers is 1113 .if the trouser cost 12% more than the shirt ,find yhe cost of the shirt​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of shirt be x

Therefore , cost of trouser = 12/100 × x

= 12x/100

= x + 12x/100

= 112x/100

therefore according  to question

x + 112x/100= 1113

212x/100 = 1113

212x = 111300

x = 111300/212

x = 525

Trouser = 112x/100

Rs 588

= 112×525/100

= Rs 588

Answer 2

Answer:

let the cost of shirt be x.

then,

. .cost of trouser 12%more than shirt

cost of trouser =x*12/100=12/100x.

x+12/100x=112/100x

A. T. Q

x+112/100x= 1113

212/100x=1113

212x=111300

x=111300/212 =525.
