Answer 1

Answer:

Since we have given that

Number of tickets of each Rs. 400 =250

Number of tickets of each Rs. 100 = 500

Entertainment tax on Rs. 400 =40%

Entertainment tax on Rs. 100 = 20%

So, Tax would be

\begin{gathered}\dfrac{40}{100}\times 400=\dfrac{16000}{100}=160\\\\and\\\\\dfrac{20}{100}\times 100=\dfrac{2000}{100}=20\end{gathered}

100

40

×400=

100

16000

=160

and

100

20

×100=

100

2000

=20

Total total tax would be

\begin{gathered}160\times 250+20\times 500\\\\=40000+10000=50000\end{gathered}

160×250+20×500

=40000+10000=50000

Hence, Rs. 50000 was collected from the programme.
