GRE Math Problem 37

A man buys 16 shirts. Some of them cost $13 each, while the remainder cost $10 each. The cost of all 16 shirts is $187.
Column A Column B

The number of $13 shifts purchased
The number of $10 shirts purchased


Solution for GRE Math Problem 36:

If all the tickets hab been sold for $25, the total sum would be 25x11=$275, which is 275-227=.$48 less, than the actual amount of money. Since the $13 ticket is 25-13=$12 cheaper, theree were = 4 tickets for $13 and 11-4=7 tickets for $25.
