50x=

Answer 2

Answer: There are 15 prizes for Rs. 100 and 48 prizes for Rs. 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of prizes = 63

Prize amount = Rs. 2700

Prize value can be of Rs. 100 or Rs.25

Let the number of prizes for Rs. 100 be 'x'.

Let the number of prizes for Rs. 25 be '63-x'.

According to question, we get

$100x+25(63-x)=2700\\\\100x+1575-25x=2700\\\\75x=2700-1575\\\\75x=1125\\\\x=\dfrac{1125}{75}=15$

So, Number of prizes for Rs. 25 would be

$63-15=48$

Hence, there are 15 prizes for Rs. 100 and 48 prizes for Rs. 25.
