Question 935345: A small seminar hall can hold 100 chairs. Three different chair colors (red, blue, green) are available. The cost of a red chair Rs.240 cost of blue chair is Rs.260 and the cost of green chair is Rs. 300. The total cost of chair is 25000. Find at least 3 different solutions of the number of chairs in each color to be purchased.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = number of red chairs
y = number of blue chairs
z = number of green chairs
---
x + y + z = 100
240x + 260y + 300z = 25000
---
first, assume that:
x = 60
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y + z = 100
240x + 260y + 300z = 25000
x = 60
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

solution:
x = number of red chairs = 60
y = number of blue chairs = 35
z = number of green chairs = 5
---
second, assume that:
y = 41
---
x + y + z = 100
240x + 260y + 300z = 25000
y = 41

---
solution:
x = number of red chairs = 56
y = number of blue chairs = 41
z = number of green chairs = 3
---
third, assume that:
z = 1
---
x + y + z = 100
240x + 260y + 300z = 25000
z = 1

solution:
x = number of red chairs = 52
y = number of blue chairs = 47
z = number of green chairs = 1
