Question

A school administrator brought 6 desk sets. Each set consists of one more table and one chair. if he paid a total of $663 for the 6 sets, the cost of each table

Answer 1

Answer:
$62.00

A school administrator bought 6 desk sets
that consists of one table and one chair.
He paid for each chair = $48.50
Cost of all 6 chairs = 48.50 × 6 = $291.00
He paid total for the 6 sets = $663.00
To get cost of 6 tables we subtract cost of
6 chairs from total payment of 6 desk sets.
Cost of all 6 tables =$663 - $291 =
$372.00
Therefore, cost of each table = $372 ÷ 6 =
$62.00
The cost of each table is $62.00
