Railway half ticket cost half the full fare of reservation charge is the same on Half Ticket as one of the full ticket reservation first class ticket from Mumbai to Ahmedabad coaster is 216 and 1 full and one-half reservation first class ticket cost 327 what is the basic first class full fair and what is the reservation charge

Answer 1

Let railway half ticket cost be x and reservation charge be y.

Given, x + y = 216      -------------------- (1)

Given, x + y + x/2 + y =  327 
on cross multiplication, we get 3x +4y =654           ----------------------------- (2)

on solving (1)*3 and (2) we get,
y = 6

Now, substitute the value of y = 6 in (1), we get
x = 210

So, First class full fare = 210 rs.
 Reservation charge = 6 rs.
