    C Rs.6000 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    E Rs.8400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let cost price of a shirt be 100x. Marked price of shirt = 160x Selling price of shirt = 160x × (75/100) = 100x + 950 => 20x = 950 => x = 95/2 So, selling price of pant = 100 × (140/100) × (95/2) + 950 = Rs. 7600
