A garden table and a bench cost $844 combined. The garden table costs $56 less than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

let garden table be 1 unit.

1 unit + 1 unit+ 56 = 844

2 units+56=844

2 units=844-56=788

1 unit=788 divided by 2 =394

hence, cost of bench = 1 unit+56=394+56=450

hope it helps:))
