The price of 2 trousers and 4 shirts is Rs. 1,600. With the same amount one can buy 1 trouser and 6 shirts. If one wants to buy 12 shirts, he has to pay

Rs. 2400

Rs. 4800

Rs. 1200

Rs. 3700

Explanation:

According to the given conditions,
2T + 4S = 1600....(1)
1T + 6S = 1600......(2)
Solving them simultaneously,
we get 1T = 2S and therefore,
8S = 1600 (from equation 2) ⇒ S = 200,
and price to be paid for 12 shirts = 12×200 = Rs.2400
