Given

Suppose the price of a singlet [tex]x[/tex]

Price of a T-shirt is [tex]5x[/tex]

According to the question, for $800, trader can buy 32 more singlet than T-shirt

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{800}{x}=\dfrac{800}{5x}+32\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{800}{x}-\dfrac{160}{x}=32\\\\\Rightarrow 800-160=32x\\\\\Rightarrow x=20[/tex]

Thus, the price of a T-shirt is [tex]5x=\$100[/tex]
