Answer quick pls....

Answer 1

Answer:744

Step-by-step explanation:

Adults =75paise =0.75 rs

Children =25paise =0.25 rs

Let the no. of adults be x

Let the no. of children be y

x+y=2500

x = 2500 - y

(0.75)x+(0.25)y=1503

(0.75)( 2500 - y )+(0.25)y=1503

1,875 - 0.75y +0.25y= 1503

-0.5y =1503-1875

-0.5y =-372

y= 372/0.5

y= 3720/5

y=744

So, 744 children saw the fair
