সঠিক উত্তর: Option B
2*(AB) + 3*(AC) = 77
or, 6*(AB) + 9*(AC) = 231 (x 3) ...................... (1)
And,
3*(AB) + 2*(AC) = 73
or, 6*(AB) + 4*(AC) = 146 (x 2) .......................... (2)
From, (1) - (2), we get,
5*(AC) = 231 - 146 = 85
or, (AC) = 85/5 = 17 tk
Now, replacing the value of (AC) in eq (1),
6*(AB) + 9*17 = 231
or, 6*(AB) = 231 - 153
or, (AB) = 78/6 =13 tk
