Solution:

As given, we have,

The cost of one pen = 36 Rs.

So, the cost of 15 pens = 36 × 15 = 540 Rs.

The cost of one book = 45 Rs.

So, the cost of 12 books = 45 × 12 = 540 Rs.

The cost of one pencil = 8 Rs.

So, the cost of 10 pencils = 8 × 10 = 80 Rs.

Now,

the cost of each eraser is 40 Rs. less than the combined costs of pen and pencil.

So,

Combined costs of pen and pencil = 36 + 8 = 44 Rs.

Cost of one eraser = 44 – 40 = 4 Rs.

So, the cost of 5 erasers = 4 × 5 = 20 Rs.

Hence,

The total amount spent is

Hence, the total amount spent is 1180 Rs.

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

A + B = 40.

And at Rs 7 a kg for 40 kg, you want a total of Rs.280.

So the second equation is 9A + 4B = 280

From the first equation: B = 40 – A

and sub into the second equation:

9A + 4(40-A) = 280

9A + 160 – 4A = 280

5A = 120

A = 24.

And you should check: B should equal 40-24 = 16. Check with the final equation: 9*24 + 4*16 = 216 + 64 = 280. So it works.

Your answer, of course, is A = 24

Recent Answer : Added by MANASA CHINTHALA On 2022-03-09 16:33:20:

P1/P2 = C1*T1/ C2*T2
where P1 = Partner 1’s Profit.
C1 = Partner 1’s Capital.
T1 = Time period for which Partner 1 contributed his capital.
P2 = Partner 2’s Profit.
C2 = Partner 2’s Capital.
T2 = Time period for which Partner 2 contributed his capital
6000/3000= 20,000*6/x*12
x=5000
