Complete step-by-step solution:
We are given that the cost of $17$ chairs is $Rs.19210$.
To find: the number of chairs that can be purchased in $Rs.113000$
Before calculating the number of chairs that can be purchased for $Rs.113000$, we need the cost of one chair first.
The cost of $17$ chairs $ = Rs.19210$
The cost of one chair \[ = \dfrac{{Rs.19210}}{{17}}\]
$ = Rs.1130$
Hence, the cost of one chair$ = Rs.1130$……$\left( 1 \right)$
Now, we shall get into our claim.
When we divide $Rs.113000$ by the value equation $\left( 1 \right)$ on the right side, we will get our required answer.
That is, the number of chairs that can be purchased in
$Rs.113000$$ = \dfrac{{Rs.113000}}{{Rs.1130}}$
$ = 100$
 Hence, the number of chairs that can be purchased in $Rs.113000$$ = 100$
Therefore, $100$ can be purchased for $Rs.113000$.

Therefore, the required marginal contentment is $68$ units.


Note: First, we need to calculate the cost of one chair. Here, we are given the cost of $17$ chairs. If we find the cost of one chair, then we can easily find how many chairs can be purchased for $Rs.113000$.
Hence, we obtained the required answer of the number of chairs that can be purchased in $Rs.113000$$ = 100$
