If the cost of the chair is xx , so the cost of the table is x+40x+40 .

Because the cost of two tables and three chairs is GHC 705

we have: 2(x+40)+3x=7052(x+40)+3x=705

2x+80+3x=7052x+80+3x=705

5x=705805x=705-80

5x=6255x=625

x=125x=125

So, the cost of the chair is 125 and the cost of the table is x+40=125+40=165x+40=125+40=165
