My friend Rita has bought 5 pens and 3 pencils at Rs. 34 from the book -shop nearby our school . But Sumita has bought 7 pens and 6pencils at Rs. 53 at the same rate and from the same shop . I write by calculating the price of each pen and pencil by framing simultaneous equations.

let the value of pens be x and pencils be y
then,
A/q
5x+3y=rs34. eq 1
7x+6y=rs 53. eq 2
multiplying eq 1 with2 we have
10x+6y=68 eq 3....
now subtracting eq 3with 2 we have...
10x+6y=68
7x+6y=53
3x=15
x=5
now finding value of y
putting value of x in eq 2
7*5+6y=53
35+6y =53
6y=18
y=3
