Some tickets of rupees 200 a nd some of rupees 100, of a drama in a theatre were sold. The no. Of tickets of rupees 200 sold was 20 mire than the number of tickets of rupees 100. The total amount received by the theatre by sale of tickets was rupees 37000. Find the number of rupees 100 tickets sold

Answer 1

let the no. of tickets sold in rs 100 be x
so, rs 200 tickets would be x+20

and amount of tickets sold in rs 100 will be X x100
100x
and amount of tickets sold for rs 200 is
200[x+20]
200x+4000

ATQ
100x+200x+4000=37000
300x+4000=37000
300x=37000-4000
300x=33000
x=33000/300
x=110
so,the no. of tickets sold at rs 100 would be 110 tickets

Answer 2

Answer:

110 tickets of Rs 100 were sold in the theater

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1st type of tickets = Rs 200

Cost of 2nd type of tickets = Rs 100

Given that the sale of 1st type of ticket is 20 more in numbers than the sale of 2nd type of tickets.

So let the number of 2nd type of tickets sold = x

Then  the number of 1st  type of tickets sold = x + 20

200 ( x + 20 ) + 100 x = 37,000

200 x + 4000 + 100 x = 37000

300 x = 37000 - 4000

300 x = 33000

By Dividing by 300 on both sides, we have

x = 110

Therefore, 110 tickets of Rs 100 were sold.
