The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations: ### Step 1: Determine the cost of three chairs The cost of each chair is given as Rs. 600. Therefore, the cost of three chairs can be calculated as follows: \[ \text{Cost of 3 chairs} = 3 \times \text{Cost of each chair} = 3 \times 600 = 1800 \] ### Step 2: Set up the equation for the total cost According to the problem, the total cost of three chairs and four tables is Rs. 2800. We can express this as: \[ \text{Cost of 3 chairs} + \text{Cost of 4 tables} = 2800 \] Substituting the cost of three chairs from Step 1: \[ 1800 + 4T = 2800 \] Where \( T \) represents the cost of each table. ### Step 3: Isolate the term with the tables To find the cost of the tables, we need to isolate \( 4T \). We can do this by subtracting the cost of the chairs from both sides of the equation: \[ 4T = 2800 - 1800 \] Calculating the right side: \[ 4T = 1000 \] ### Step 4: Solve for the cost of each table Now, we can find the cost of each table by dividing both sides of the equation by 4: \[ T = \frac{1000}{4} \] Calculating this gives: \[ T = 250 \] ### Conclusion The cost of each table is Rs. 250. ---
