you can buy 5 printers for the price of two phones and one computer. If the price of a computer is 4 times higher than the price of a printer, how many phones can be bought for the price of 3 computers and 2 printers?
Let's assume the price of one printer is P.
Therefore, the price of 5 printers is 5P.
Let's assume the price of one phone is X.
Therefore, the price of two phones is 2X.
Let's assume the price of one computer is C.
Therefore, the price of one computer is 4P and the price of three computers is 3C.
We are given that:
5P = 2X + C
We are also given that:
3C + 2P = Y
Substituting the value of C from the first equation into the second equation, we get:
3(4P) + 2P = Y
12P + 2P = Y
14P = Y
Therefore, the price of 3 computers and 2 printers is equal to 14 printers.
So, the answer is 14.
