Answer 1

The correct option is A

Total amount = ₹1716.25

Trousers are more expensive than the shirt by ₹155.25

Cost of shirt = ₹780.50
Cost of trouser = ₹935.75
Total Amount Spent $=₹780.50+₹935.75=₹1716.25$

Difference in the amount = Cost of trouser - Cost of shirt$=₹935.75-780.50=155.25$
$\therefore$ Trousers are more expensive than the shirt by ₹ 155.25.
