Question

For a show, two types of ticket were sold, one costing Rupees 250 and other costing 100. Total number of tickets sold were 65 and total collection was 4,500. Find the number of tickets sold of each type.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of ₹ 50 tickets = 40 and the number of ₹ 100 tickets = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of ₹ 50 tickets = x and

The number of ₹ 100 tickets = y

To find, the number of tickets sold of each type = ?

According to question,

x + y = 65

And, 50x + 100y = 4500

Multiplying equation (1) by 100, we get

100x + 100y = 6500

Subtracting (3) from (2), we get

100x + 100y - (50x + 100y) = 6500 - 4500

⇒ 100x + 100y - 50x - 100y = 6500 - 4500

⇒ 50 x = 2000

⇒ x= 2000/50 =40

Putting the value of x in equation (1), we get

40 + y = 65

⇒ y = 65 - 40 = 25

Thus, the number of ₹ 50 tickets = 40 and the number of ₹ 100 tickets = 25.
