Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : Rs. 1,610

Given:

The total ticket sold = 420

Calculation:

According to the question,

Half of the ticket sold at the rate of Rs. 5 each

420 × (1/2) × 5 = Rs. 1,050

one-third at the rate of Rs. 3 each

420 × (1/3) × 3 = Rs. 420

Remaining tickets 

⇒ 420 - {420 × (1/2) + 420 × (1/3)}

⇒ 420 - (210 + 140) = 70

According to the question,

The remaining tickets are are sold at rate Rs. 2 each

⇒ 70 × 2 = Rs. 140

Total amount recieved = 1,050 + 420 + 140 = Rs. 1,610

∴ The total amount recived is Rs. 1,610
