Answer :D
Let the number of people who got Rs 500 be x
The number of people who got Rs 100 is (200 - x)
Solving x:
The total amount is Rs 80,000
500x + 100(200 - x) = 80000
500x + 20,000 - 100x = 80000
400x = 60,000
x = 150
Find the number of each prize:
Rs 500 = x = 150
Rs 100 = 200 - x = 200 - 150 = 50
There are 150 Rs 500-prize and 50 Rs 100-prize
