    Ashima bought 23 things from the market. She bought five more jeans than shirts and two fewer watches than jeans. If x represents the number of shirts in total, then which sentence can be used to find how many of each thing are bought?

    A)  \[x+(x+5)+(x+3)=23\]

    B)  \[x+(x-5)+(x-3)=23\]

    C)  \[(x+5)+(x+3)=23\]

    D)  \[x+(x+3)=23\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Number of shirts bought by Ashima \[=\text{ }x\] \[\therefore \] Number of jeans bought by her \[=\text{ }x\text{ }+\text{ }5\] \[\therefore \] Number of watches bought by her \[=(x+5)-2=x+3\] \[\therefore \] Total number of things bought by her \[=x+(x+5)+\left( x+3 \right)=23\]
