Question

The cost of two pairs of jeans and three t-shirts is Rs 1350. If a pair of jeans costs Rs 50 more than the t-shirts, find the cost of a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.

Answer 1

let cost of a pair of jeans be x
let the cost of one t-shirt be y

2x+3y= 1350----------1

x=50+y--------2

Sub 2 in 1

2x+3(50+x)=1350
2x + 150+3x= 1350
5x = 1200
x= 1200/5=240

Answer 2
