The organizes of aquiz competition decided that the winner in the competition will get a prize of 200 rupees
so, winner get 200 rupees
let no of winner be x
participant who does not win will get a prize of 50 rupees
so, participant will get 50 rupees
total participants is 120
The total prize money distributed is 12000 rupees
total prize = 12000
so, 200x + 120×50 = 12000
200x + 6000 = 12000
200x = 12000 - 6000
200x = 6000
x = 6000/200
x = 30
so, total no of winner is x = 30
