Answer:
Let the price of two hundred pages notebook be ‘x’ and price of hundred pages book be ‘y’.
According to the question,
Raju bought 7 notebooks of two hundred pages and five of hundred pages for 107 rupees
⇒ 7x + 5y = 107 ... (1)
Joseph bought five notebooks of two hundred pages and seven of hundred pages, for 97 rupees
⇒ 5x + 7y = 97… (2)
Equating (1) and (2)
7x + 5y = 107
5x + 7y = 97
Multiply Equation (1) by 7 and equation (2) by 5
Multiply Equation (1) by 7 and equation (2) by 5Then, Subtract equation (2) from (1)
49x + 35y = 749
-25x - 35y = -485
24x = 264
x = 264/24
x = 11
Put x = 11 in Equation (3)
49 × 11 + 35 y = 749
⇒ 539 + 35y = 749
⇒ 35y = 749 – 539
⇒ 35y = 210
⇒ y = 210/35
⇒ y = 6
Hence, price of two hundred pages notebook is 11rupees and price of hundred pages notebook is 6 rupees.
