To determine the cost of each device, we can set up a system of equations based on the given information.
Let's assume the cost of one smartphone is S and the cost of one tablet is T. We are given the following information:


270 preorders for the smartphone and 280 orders for the tablet: S * 270 + T * 280 = 363,910
The combined price of a smartphone and a tablet is $1314: S + T = 1314


Now, we can solve this system of equations to find the values of S and T.
