12 chairs and 6 tables were bought for ₹12,600. If the average cost of a table is ₹1,500, then find the average cost of a chair.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. ₹300.
12 chairs + 6 tables cost = ₹12,600
6 × ₹1,500 = ₹9,000
Remaining cost for chairs = ₹12,600 - ₹9,000 = ₹3,600
Average cost of a chair = ₹3,600 / 12 = ₹300
