Hey Dear,
# Complete question is -
Q. A bangle seller sells red bangles at 19 per dozen & blue bangles 23 per dozen. If he buys 10 dozen bangles in 202 Rs, how many blue & red bangles does he buy ?
● Answer -
6 dozen red & 4 dozen blue bangles
◆ Explaination -
Let x & y be dozens of red & blue bangles sold by the bangle-seller.
Total bangles are 10 dozen,
x + y = 10
x = 10 - y ...(1)
Total sell is 202 ₹,
19x + 23y = 202
19(10-y) + 23y = 202
190 - 19y + 23y = 202
3y = 202 - 190
3y = 12
y = 4
Putting this in (1),
x = 10 - y
x = 10 - 4
x = 6
Therefore, bangle seller sells 6 dozen red & 4 dozen blue bangles.
Hope this helps..
