Answer:

£48 is the original price

Step-by-step explanation:

1/7 increase in price

£56 after the increase

For it to be 1/7 increase, 6/7 will be the normal price because 1/7+6/7=1

6/7*£56=£48

Hence £56 - £48 = £8

It indicate that £8 is the increase,

£48 is the original price and £56 is the total price of the T-shirt
