Question

Eli has bought a shirt and a pair of pants for a total of 600 kr. Simin bought four of those shirts and two of those pants, and it cost her 1500 kr. How much did one shirt cost?

Answer 1

Explanation:

let the price of one shirt be x and one pant be y

Eli--> x+y=600------eq1

Simin-->4x+2y=1500-----eq2

Solve both the equations

multiply eq1 x 4= 4x+4y=2400

now subtract ew2 from 1

you will get y=450 and x=150

so price of one shirt=150 kr
