A garden table and a bench cost $763 combined. The garden table costs $63 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Sagot :

Answer:

$350

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost is 763 and the garden table is 63 more than the bench. To find the bench you take the total cost and divided it by 2 to see what the numbers would be if they were equal this will give you the x number. Then you take the difference between the numbers (63) and also divide it by 2 because you have 2 objects, this will give you the d number. Then take the X number you calculated before and add the D number to find the price of the table. To find the bench you take the X number again but subtract the D this time.

total / 2 = X

Difference / 2 = D

X + D = Table

X - D = Bench

763/2 = 381.5 = X

63/2 = 31.5 = D

381.5 + 31.5 = 413 = table

381.5 - 31.5 = 350 = bench

then to check work...

table + bench = total cost

table - bench = difference

413 + 350 = 763

413 - 350 = 63
