Question

Cost of the table is more than chair by Rs. 350. If the total cost of one table and one chair is Rs. 1350. What is the cost of table?

Answer 1

Let cost of chair by x and cost of table be y.

Given y = x + 350

y - x=350 ...(1)

and x + y = 1350 ... (2)

2y = 1700

[y = 850 Rs]

and x = 850 - 350 = 500 Rs.

[x = 500 Rs]

Hence cost of chair is 500 Rs. and cost of

table is 850 Rs.
