let uncle H's hat and suit as Hh and Hs respectively. And aunt C's hat and dress as Ch and Cd.
According the problem, Hh+Hs=15----> (1) and Ch=Hs----->(2).
Remaining amount=15-Ch=Cd,
Then 15-Ch=Cd=Hs-1----->(3),
After solving (1),(2)&(3),
Hh=7, Hs=8=Ch and Cd=7.
Therefore uncle H's hat cost is RS7.
