please answer by step by step explanation please ​

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

Total tickets sold by the boy :-

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{1755}{2} \div \frac{65}{2}$

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{1755}{2} \times \frac{2}{65}$

$\longmapsto \sf \: \frac{1755 \times 2}{2 \times 65}$

$\longmapsto \sf \cancel \frac{3510}{130} = \frac{27}{1} = 27$

$\Huge\therefore$27 tickets were sold at the charity show.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost of each ticket= Rs 65/2

Total amount collected by the boy=2×1755+1

=3,510+1=>Rs3,511

No. of tickets sold=3,511/65/2

=3,511×2/65

=7,022/65

=108.03076923076

So, 108.03076923076 tickets were sold by the boy.
