148x+231y=910

231x+ 148y=610

find x and y

Open in App
Solution

148x + 231y = 610 ---- (1)
231x + 148y = 527 ---- (2)

On adding eq. (1) and (2), we get

379x + 379y = 1137
x + y = 3 ---- (3)

On subtracting eq. (1) from (2), we get
83x - 83y = -83
x - y = -1 ---- (4)

On adding eq. (3) and (4), we get

2x = 2
x = 1

On putting value of "x" in eq (4), we get

1 - y = -1
y = 1 + 1
y = 2 A
