Correct Answer: 90
Solution : Given: Number of tables = 108 Number of chairs = 132 Broken tables = $\frac{1}{6}$th of total tables = $\frac{108}{6}$ = 18 Broken chairs = $\frac{1}{4}$th of total chairs = $\frac{132}{4}$ = 33 According to the question, Undamaged tables = total tables – broken tables = 108 – 18 = 90 Undamaged chairs = total chairs – broken chairs = 132 – 33 = 99 There are 90 undamaged tables and 99 undamaged chairs. So only 90 pairs of tables and chairs can be used by people as per the question. Hence, the correct answer is 90.
