Question

The total cost of 3 tables and 2 chairs is Rs.745. If a table cost Rs.40 more than a chair , find the price of each .

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the cost of chair be x

so the cost of table is x+40

By the condition given in the question

3 (x+40)+2x=745

3x+120+2x=745

5x=625

x=125

x+40=165

so the cost of chair is Rs 125 and the cost of table is Rs 165
