Q:

A man buys a trouser in Rs.1250. By reduction of 20% in the price of trouser, he can purchase a t-shirt also in the same amount that was initially paid for the trouser. Find the price of the t-shirt?

A) Rs. 250 B) Rs. 125
C) Rs. 225 D) Rs. 200

Answer:   A) Rs. 250



Explanation:

Initial amount spent on trouser by the man = Rs. 1250

Now, by the reduction of 20% in 1250, he can buy t-shirt too.

=> t-shirt cost = 20% of 1250 = 20 x 1250/100 = 250

 

Therefore, the price of the t-shirt = Rs. 250.
