Question

In an express train, the passengers travelling in AC sleeper class, first class and second class are in the ratio 1 :2 :7 and rate per each class is in the ratio 5:4 :2. if the total income from this train is rs. 54,000, then the income of railways from AC sleeper class is​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no. of passengers in AC , first class and second class be x ,2x and 7x respectively.

Let cost of Ac ,first class and second class be 5y ,4y and 2y.

total income from AC =x *5y = 5xy

total income of first class=8xy

total income of second class =14xy

total income of railway = 54000

so ATQ 5xy +8xy+14xy=54000

27xy =54000

xy =2000

so income from Ac class =5 xy =5*2000 = 10000
