What is the equation of this problem?

Edna paid at least Php 1,200 for a pair of pants and a blouse. The cost of the pair of pants is Php 600 more than the cost of the blouse.


Sagot :

1200=(600+x)+x ok n po yn

Let x be the cost of the blouse. 
x + 600 will be the cost of the pants

Equation:
x + x+600 = 1,200


If we solve for x, we have
2x + 600 = 1,200
2x = 1,200 - 600
2x = 600
x = 300

Therefore, the blouse costs Php300 and the pair of pants costs Php900.
