Для школы купили 198 столов и шкафов.Шкафов куплено в 8 раз меньше чем столов.сколько шкафов и столов купили? решите уравнением

Let's denote the number of tables as T and the number of cabinets as C.

According to the given information, the number of cabinets bought is 8 times less than the number of tables. Therefore, we can write the equation:

C = 8T

The total number of tables and cabinets purchased is given as 198:

T + C = 198

Substituting the value of C from the first equation into the second equation, we get:

T + 8T = 198 9T = 198 T = 198 / 9 T = 22

Now, we can substitute the value of T into the first equation to find the number of cabinets:

C = 8 * 22 C = 176

Therefore, 22 tables and 176 cabinets were purchased.
