In a cricket match there are three types of tickets say A, B and C each costing Rs. 1000, Rs. 500
and Rs. 200 respectively. The ratio of the tickets sold of categories A, B and C is 3 : 2 : 5. If the total collection from selling the tickets is Rs 2.5 crore, find the total number of tickets sold?
-
- 5000
- 4800
- 50000
- 52000
Correct Option: C
Tickets of type A ⇒ 3x
Tickets of type B ⇒ 2x
Tickets of type C ⇒ 5x
According to the question,
(3x × 1000 + 2x × 500 + 5x × 200)
= 2.5 × 10000000
⇒ 30x + 10x + 10x = 250000
⇒ 50x = 250000
⇒ x = 5000
Total number of tickets sold = 10x
= 10 × 5000 = 50000
