let fare for full first class = Rs. x
and reservation charge = Rs. y
A/Q cost of full first class ticket = x + y = Rs. 2530 ......(1)
and cost of one full and one half first class ticket = x + y + x/2 + y = Rs. 3810
= 3x + 4y = 7620 ...........(2)
solving (1) and (2)
x = Rs. 2500 and y = Rs. 30
hope my ans is correct.
