Question

A garden table and a bench cost 816 combined. The garden table costs 84 less than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Answer 1

Answer:

366

Step-by-step explanation:

A garden table and bench cost 816 when combined together

The garden table cost 84 less than the bench

Therefore the price of the bench can be calculated as follows

x + (x+84)= 816

2x+84= 816

2x= 816-84

2x= 732

Divide both sides by 2

x= 732/2

= 366

Hence the price of the bench is 366
