1 answer:
He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of one t-shirt = $20
Cost of one pants = $45
Total items sold = 100
Total sales = 2600
Let,
x be the number of t-shirts
y be the number of pants
According to given statement;
x+y=100 Eqn 1
20x+45y=2600 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 20
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 25
Putting in Eqn 1
He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.
