Shirt price , pants price, the same

system%28%283%2B1%29x=11%2C%288%2B2%29x=26%29
-
system%28x=11%2F4%2Cx=26%2F10=13%2F5%29---------------the description is wrong.

-
The first part of the description should give this:
y, pants price
x, shirts price
system%283x%2By=11%2C8x%2B2y=26%29

system%283x%2By=11%2C4x%2By=13%29

system%28highlight%28x=2%29%2Cand%2Chighlight%28y=5%29%29
