In the following table, Laspeyre's and Paasche's Price Index Numbers are equal. Complete the following activity to find x :

Commodity Base Year Current year
Price Quantity Price Quantity
A 2 10 2 5
B 2 5 x 2

Solution: P01(L) = P01(P)

`(sum "p"_1"q"_0)/(sum "p"_0"q"_0) xx 100 = square/(sum "p"_0"q"_1) xx 100`

`(20 + 5x)/square xx 100 = square/14 xx 100`

∴ x = `square`
