Question

A musical fountain show was organised in a park, during which 36% of the tickets were issued as half-tickets and 52% were issued as full-tickets out of total of 1500 tickets. The number of half-tickets and full-tickets issued is

• A. 1420 and 300
• B. 540 and 78
• C. 54 and 780
• D. 540 and 780

Answer 1

The correct option is D 540 and 780

There are total $1500$ tickets to be issued.

It is given that $36$% were issued as half tickets. Therefore, number of half tickets are:

$\frac{36}{100}\times 1500=540$

Also, $52$% were issued as full tickets. Therefore, number of full tickets are:

$\frac{52}{100}\times 1500=780$

Hence, the number of half tickets and full tickets issued were $540$ and $780$ respectively.
