Solution

Let Jimmy sold the ticket at Rs.x
Then, the price of the ticket sold by Ankitesh =138x=118x
So, the total price of the ticket sold by Jimmy and Ankitesh =x+11x8=Rs.3800
19x8=3800
x=3800×819=Rs.1600
The price of ticket sold by Jimmy =Rs.1600
The price of the ticket sold by Ankitesh =118×1600=Rs.2200
