Answer:

  • Cost of chair is $ 9

Given:

  • Cost of table is four times as the chair
  • Total cost of a table and four chairs is $18

Solution:

Let the cost of chair = $ x

then the cost of table = $ 4x

ATQ

→ 4x + 4x = $ 18

→ 8x = 18

→ x = 18/8

x = $ 2.25

Therefore cost of chair = x = $ 2.25

and, cost of table = 4x = $(4 × 2.25) = $ 9
