A garden table and a bench cost $985 combined. The garden table costs $35 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

let the cost price of bench be x then cost price of garden table is x+35
total cost = x + x+35 985 = 2x +35 985 -35÷2 =x 425 =× then the total cost of bench is 425 and garden is 460

985-35=950, 950÷2=475, 475+35=510**, 510 and 475**

The cost of the bench is $475, and the garden table costs $510. This is determined by setting up an equation based on the relationship between the two costs. After solving, we find the individual costs based on the total of $985 and the $35 difference.
