Question

3500 villagers bought ticket to see a village fair. The adults paid 5rs each while children paid 2.50rs each. If the total receipts ammounted to 12500rs find the number of children who saw the fair

Answer 1

Answer:

2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no.of adults be x and no.of children be y

Given, Total:- x+y=3500 ---- eq:1

The amount paid by adults is 5rs , So total amount = 5x

Similarly,  children total amount is 2.5y

Total amount collected = 12500

5x+2.5y=12500

from eq 1 --

x=3500-y

substitute in original eq

5(3500-y) + 2.5y = 12500

From here y=2000

The Ans is 2000 children
