The ratio of ticket fare of a seat in arrangement I, II and III is 7 : 5 : 4. Total fare collected is Rs.24500 when theater is houseful.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 29%

Given:

Let number of customers in arrangements I, II and III be 2a, 3a and 5a respectively.

Let the ticket fare of a seat of arrangement I, II and III be Rs.7b, Rs.5b and Rs.4b respectively.

Calculation:

⇒ 2a × 7b + 3a × 5b + 5a × 4b = 24500

⇒ ab = 500

The ticket fare collected from arrangement I = 2a × 7b = 14ab = 14 × 500 = Rs.7000

∴ Required percentage = 7000/24500 × 100 = 28.57 ≈ 29%.
