Let us consider,
Cost of one chair = ₹ x and
Cost of one table = ₹ y
As per the statement,
5x + 4y = ₹ 5600 …(1)
4x + 3y = ₹ 4340 …(2)
Using elimination method:
Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 4. And subtract both the equations.
So, x = 560
From (1):
5 x 560 + 4y = 5600
2800 + 4y = 5600
4y = 5600 – 2800
4y = 2800
y = 700
Answer:
Cost of one chair = ₹ 560
and cost of one table = ₹ 700
