Question

A garden table and a bench cost $ 706 combined. The garden table costs $56 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Answer 1

The bench costs $350

Explanation:

let the cost of the bench = x

x + (x + 94) = 794

2x + 94 = 794

2x = 700

x = 350

The bench costs $350 and the table costs $444.
