Question

For a charity show the total tickets sold were 420. Half of these tickets were sold at the rate of 5 each one third at the rate of 3 each and the rest of 2 each. What was the total amount received

Answer 1

Total amount received for 420 tickets=
210(5)+140(3)+70(2)=1610

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

420 tickets

1) Half of 420 = 210 (each rs. 5)

Total - rs. 1050

2) 1/3rd of 210 = 70 (each rs. 3)

Total - rs. 210

3) Rest tickets - 210-70 = 140 (each rs. 2)

Total - rs. 280

Now,

1050 + 210 + 280

Total - rs. 1540

Right answer is Rs. 1540
