Hi!

Total rent for one day of three persons = 3 × Rs 2100 = Rs 6300

Rent for one day for one person = Rs 3900

Given, additional cost for one person be Rs x.

∴Cost of 2 additional 2 persons = Rs 2x

Rent for one day for one person + Cost of 2 additional 2 persons = Total rent for one day of three persons

Rs 3900 + Rs 2x = Rs 6300

⇒ 2x = Rs 6300 – Rs 3900

⇒ 2x = Rs 2400

⇒ x = Rs 1200

Thus, the value of x is Rs 1200.

Cheers!
