Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of 1 water bottle be ₹x
Then the cost of 1 peeler = ₹(50 + x)
Cost of 2 water bottles = ₹2x
Cost of 3 peelers = 3(50 + x)
= ₹(150 + 3x)
Given that, the total cost of both the items is ₹1400
= (150 + 3x) + x = 1400
= 150 + 3x + x = 1400
= 150 + 4x = 1400
= 4x = 1400 - 150
= 4x = 1250
= x = 1250/4
= x = 312.5
Hence, cost of 1 water bottle is ₹312.5
So, the cost of 2 water bottles =
= 2 × 312.5
= ₹625
Also, the cost of 3 peelers =
= 150 + 3(312.5)
= ₹1087.5
Hope this helps :)
