Answer:
the price of the pen is 3 rupees
Step-by-step explanation:
as in the first statement its given tht 3 note books n 5 pens r of 75 rupees
while 10 pens n 3 notebooks r of 90 rupees
so the no. of note books is same in both statements.
when there were 5 pens then-- 75 rupees
when there were 10 pens then--90 rupees
so, difference between them is of 5 pens
5 pens= 15 rupees (90-75)
thus each pen costs 3 rupees (15÷5)
now we know the price of pen let's verify it
in the first statement there were 5 pens so 15 rupees rest is of note books i.e. 3 notebooks cost 60 rupees (each 20)
in 2nd statement
3 notebooks so 60 rupees and 10 pens so 10×3=30
60+30
=90
hence proved
