a man buys few books at rs 72 each and few pens at rs 25 each .if he buys 11 articles and pays rs 510 find the number of each article bought by him

Given :

A man buys a few number of books at RS 72 each and a few number of pens at RS 25 each .

To Find :

If he buys 11 articles and pays RS 510 altogether,find the number of each article bought by him .

Solution:

Total no. of article = 11

Let x be the no. of books bought for RS 72 each

So, No. of pens bought for RS 25 each = 11-x

Cost of x books = 72x

Cost (11-x) pens = 25(11-x)

He buys 11 articles and pays RS 510 altogether

So,72x+25(11-x)=510

72x+275-25x=510

47x=510-275

x=5

So,No. of pens bought for RS 25 each = 11-x=11-5=6

Hence 6 pens and 5 books were bought by him.
