    A shirt costs Rs 12 more than the belt. The total cost of 2 such shirts and 5 such belts Is  Rs. 164. What is the cost of one belt?

    A)  Rs. 20                         

    B)  Rs. 22             

    C)  Rs. 32             

    D)         Rs. 34

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Cost of one shirt is Rs. 12 more than the belt. Cost of two shirts and 5 belts = Rs. 164 \[\therefore \] Cost of (2 \[\times \] shirts + 5 \[\times \] belts) = Rs. 164 \[\Rightarrow \]Cost of [2(Rs. 12+1 belt) + 5 belts] =Rs.164 \[\Rightarrow \] Rs. 24 + Cost of (2 belts + 5 belts) = Rs. 164 \[\Rightarrow \]Cost of 7 belts = Rs. (164 - 24) = Rs. 140 \[\therefore \]Cost of 1 belt = Rs. \[\left( 140\div \text{ }7 \right)\]= Rs. 20.
