Complete step by step answer:
Given: Total number of tickets sold which are 300300 and the total sale of tickets is Rs. 12501250 in which denomination of Rs.2.502.50 and Rs. 5.005.00 are there.
As tickets of only two denominations were sold which are Rs. 2.50 and Rs. 5.00, it means only two types of tickets are sold.
As the number of tickets sold for both the denominations are unknown, So let’s assume the number of tickets of the valuation of Rs.2.50 be xxand the number of tickets sold for denomination of Rs.5.00 beyy. Then total revenue from tickets of denomination of Rs.2.50 will be (2.50)x(2.50)xand total revenue from tickets of denomination of Rs.5.00 will be(5.00)y(5.00
