Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

☘Correct question:-

A local bus is carrying 40 passengers, some with 50paisa tickets and the remaining with Rs1.50 tickets. If the total money collected from the passengers is Rs3200, then find the number of passengers with 50 paisa tickets.

☘ᗩᑎՏᗯᗴᖇ:-

Given :-

• Total number of the passengers is 40.
• Total money collected from these passengers is Rs 3200.
• Some of passengers traveling with 50 paise of tickets and some of passengers traveling with 1.50 paise of tickets.

To find:-

• The number of passengers with 50 paisa tickets.

Let,

the number of passengers with 1.50 paise tickets by x.

The number of passengers with 50 paise tickets = 40 - x.

According to the condition of the question,

150x + 50 (40 - x) = 3200

⇨ 150x + 2000 - 50x = 3200

⇨ 100x = 1200

⇨ x = 12

Therefore,

The number of passengers with 50 paise tickets

⇢ 40 - x

⇢ 40 - 12

⇢ 28

✿ Hence, The number of passengers with 50 paisa tickets are 28.
