Question

A pen costs 6 times as much as a pencil. If Charan buys 4 pencils and 3 pens and pays ? 45, find the cost of the pen and pencil.

Answer 1

Answer:

For pencil its 45/22 and pen its 135/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of pencil be ₹x

 ∴ Cost of pen = ₹6x

since there is 4 pencil and 3 pens we can say

there are 4x pencil and 3 X 6x pen so we can equate it like

4x+3 X6x=45

4x+18=45

22x=45

x=45/22<----- For pencil

6x= 6 X 45/22

cross multiply 6 and 22 by the tables of 2 so it becomes

3 X 45/11 =135/11 for pen

Hope this answer might help you :)
