n = noodles
m = milk
"In Kyotoshi..." tells me 3n + 2m = 2153
"Three cartons..." tells me 3m - n = 89
so if you rearrange the second equation, n = 3m - 89
subsitute that in the first equation, 3(3m - 89) + 2m = 2153
distribute, 9m - 267 + 2m = 2153
simplify, 11m = 2420
therefore, m = 220
plug that 220 in an equation to solve for n, 3(220) - n = 89
660 - n = 89
n = 571
so a bowl of noodles = n = 571 yen
and a carton of fresh milk = m = 220 yen

N = cost of a bowl of noodles
M = cost of a carton of milk
From the first sentence, 3N + 2M = 2153
From the second sentence, 3M = N + 89
Manipulate the second equation to solve for N:
N = 3M -89
Substitue this for N in the first equation:
3(3M - 89) + 2M = 2153
9M - 267 + 2M= 2153
11M = 2420
M = 220
Using equation 2 again:
3 (220) = N + 89
660 = N + 89
N = 571
The bowl of Noodles costs 571 yen, and a carton of milk costs 220 yen.

Let the cost of one carton of milk be m and one bowl of noodles be n
2m +3n = 2153 .....(1)
3m - n = 89 ......(2)
(2) x 3 > 9m - 3n = 267 ......(3)
(1) + (3) > 11m = 2420
m = 220
Substitute th value of m in (1)
440 + 3n = 2153
3n = 2153 - 440 = 1713
n = 571
Therefore the cost of a bowl of noodles is 571 yen and the cost of one carton of milk is 220 yen.

m = cost of milk
3n + 2m = 2153
3m = n + 89
n = 3m - 89
3(3m - 89) + 2m = 2153
9m - 267 + 2m = 2153
11m = 2420
m = 220
n = 3(220) - 89 = 660 - 89 = 571
Ans. A carton of milk costs 571 yen. A bowl of noodles costs 220 yen.

N=¥/bowl of noodles
M=¥/carton of milk
3N+2M=2153
3M-N=89, so N=3M-89
3N+2M=2153, so 3(3M-89)+2M=2153;
11M-267=2153
11M=2420
M=¥220
N=3M-89=3(220)-89=660-89
N=¥571

let the cost of noodles be x and milk be y
3x+2y=2153 (1)
3y-89=x (2)
put (2) to (1)
3(3y-89) + 2y = 2153
9y -267 + 2y =2153
11 y = 2420
y = 220
x = 3 (220) -89
= 571

let x be the one bowl of noodle
let y be the one carton of milk
According to question
3x + 2y = 2153 equation 1
3y= 89 + x equation 2
so, y= 89 + x / 3
now substitute this value of y in equation 1

n=noodles
m=milk
3n+2m=2153
3m=89+n ---> n=3m-89
3(3m-89)+2m=2153
9m-267+2m=2153
11m=2460
m=220
