Question

The price of a table is four times the price of a chair. If a man pays Rs 3200 for a table and 4 chairs, find the cost of a table and a char.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Table Price : 4x each

Chair : x each

Fee Payable: 3200 ( A table and 4 chair)

Cost of table and chair = ?

According to Question:-

1(4x) + 4(x) = 3200

4x + 4x = 3200

8x = 3200

x = 3200/8 = 400

So cost of a table is 4x = 4*400 = 1600

So cost of Table is 1600.

Cost of 4 chairs = 3200-1600

Cost of 4 Chairs is 1600

So cost of one will be 1600/4 = 400

Cost of 1 chair is Rs. 400.
