Ajay and Amar had the same amount of money. Ajay bought 4 gift packets and was left with $325. Amar bought 3 gift packets and was left with $425. find the cost of one gift packet and the amount each one of them had

Answer 1

Answer:

Amount of one packet=$100

Since Amar bought 3 packets and money left with him was $425.

Ajay bought 4 packets and money left with him was $325

Therefore amount of one packet =425-325=100

Each of them had $425+$300=$725

$325+$400=$725

Answer 2

The cost of one gift packet is 100 and the amount each one of them had Rs.725

Step-by-step explanation:

Let cost of 1 gift be x

Ajay bought 4 gift packets and was left with $325.

Cost of 4 gifts = 4x

So, Ajay had total amount = 325+4x

Amar bought 3 gift packets and was left with $425.

Cost of 3 gifts = 3x

So, Amar had total amount = 425+3x

We are given that Ajay and Amar had the same amount of money.

So, 325+4x=3x+425

x=100

Ajay had total amount = 325+4x=325+4(100)=725

Hence the cost of one gift packet is 100 and the amount each one of them had Rs.725
