Question

In the figure, a house indicates x and temple indicates y. What is the value of a house?

• A. 552
• B. 138
• C. 128
• D. 562

Answer 1

The correct option is A 552

From the figure
4y = x-------->(1)

From second part of the figure,

2x + y = 1242

$⟹$ 2(4y) + y = 1242

$⟹$ 8y + y = 1242

$⟹$ 9y = 1242

$⟹$ y = $\frac{1242}{9}$

$⟹$ y = 138

Substitute the value of y in equation (1), we get:
4(138) = x

$⟹$ x = 552

Here, x indicates the value of house. So, the value of a house is 552.
