Question

Price of 5 chairs and 2 tables is Rs. 1350. Two chairs cost as much as one table. What is the price of one chair and one table?

Answer 1

cost of one chair = 150
cost of one table = 300
cost of one chair and table will be =450

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of one chair be c.

The cost of a table is equal to the cost of two chairs.

Therefore :

Table = 2c

We do the substitution as follows :

5(c) + 2(2c) = 1350

5c + 4c = 1350

9c = 1350

c = 1350/9

c= 150

The cost of a chair = 150

The cost of a table = 150 × 2 = 300

Chair = Rs 150

Table = Rs 300
