Question

One chair and one table price is 371. Tables price is 12%more than chairs price. What is price of table?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the cost price of desk be ' x '

And that of chair = ' x + 12 % of x '

= x + 12 × x / 100

= x + 3x / 25

= 25x + 3x / 25

= 28x / 25

According to the question ,,,,

=> Price of desk + Price of chair = ₹ 371

=> x + 28x / 25 = 371

=> 25x + 28x / 25 = 371

=> 53x / 25 = 371

=> 53x = 371 × 25

=> 53x = 9275

=> x = 175
