Answer 1

Answer:

please post total question

Answer 2

The selling price of a sofa set can be found from the given selling price of two sofa sets.

• Of the two statements given here, statement 2 alone is sufficient enough for determining the selling price of one sofa set.
• According to the second statement, the selling price (SP) of two sofa sets is given. So, by applying the unitary method, the selling price of one sofa set can be found by dividing the total selling price by 2. That is, $(SP \hspace{3} of\hspace{3} 1\hspace{3} sofa\hspace{3} set)=\frac{1}{2} \times (SP \hspace{3} of\hspace{3} 2\hspace{3} sofa\hspace{3} sets)$.
• Further, the cost price of a sofa set is given in the 1st statement, which is, however, not really required to find the SP of a sofa set.
