The cost of a bag is three times the cost of a geometry box. The cost of 2 bags and 3 geometry boxes is Rs.3,960. Find the cost of a geometry box?
- Rs.430
- Rs.440
- Rs.460
- None of these
Explanation
Let's denote the cost of a geometry box as x. Since the cost of a bag is three times the cost of a geometry box, the cost of a bag is 3x.
Given that the cost of 2 bags and 3 geometry boxes is Rs.3,960, we can set up the equation:
2(3x) + 3(x) = 3960
6x + 3x = 3960
9x = 3960
Divide both sides by 9:
x = 3960 / 9
x = 440
