Answer 2

Answer:

Cost of one book = 160

Cost of other book = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

⇒Kevin bought two book for Rs 360

Let the cost of one book = x

then the cost of other book = (x+40)

-----------------------------------------------------------

According to Question :

⇒x+x+40=360

⇒2x=360-40

⇒2x=320

⇒x=320/2

⇒x=160

∴

Cost of one book = x = 160

and cost of other book = (x+40) =160+40=200
