Question

a total of ₹14000 is to distributed among 200 participate as price .A prize is either₹50 or ₹100 .Find the number of prize of each type

Answer 1

Hi,

There is total 200 prices so Let's assume that 100/- price number is x and 50/- price number is 200-x.

Now,

(100 × x) + 50×(200-x) = 14000

:• 100x + 10000 - 50x = 14000

:• 50x = 14000 - 10000

:• 50x = 4000

:• x = 80

So the total 100/- prices are 80 and 50/- prices are 120. Thank you.
