Question

A total of Rs 50000 is to be distributed among 250 persons as prizes. A prize is either Rs 600 or Rs 100 . Find the number of each type of prizes​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=50

y=200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the people getting Rs.600

Let y be the people getting Rs.100

600x+100y=50000

100(6x+y)=50000

6x+y=500. (i)

x+y=250. (ii)

x=250-y

6(250-y)+y=500

1500-6y+y=500

-5y=500-1500

y=200

x=50
