with Rs 3 tickets. If the total collection from these passengers is Rs 112.50, find
the number of Rs 2.50 tickets.​

Answer 1

Answer:

15. Tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of passengers having ticket of ₹2.50 be x

Then no. Of passengers having ticket of ₹3 is 40-x

ATQ

2.5x+120-3x

120-0.5x=112.50

7.5=0.5x

x=15
