Question

The price of a table and a chair are in the ratio 7 : 5. If the table costs ₹360 more than the chair, then find the total price of the chair and the table.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The price of a table and a chair are in the ratio 7 : 5.

table cost = 7x

chair cost = 5x

Table costs ₹360 more than the chair,

table cost- chair cost = 360

7x- 5x=360

2x =360

X=180

table cost = 7x = 7 * 180 = ₹ 1260

chair cost = 5x = 5 * 180 = ₹ 900
