Solution

Cost of 1 ticket = Rs $10 \frac{1}{2}$ = Rs $\frac{21}{2}$
Total amount collected by the boy = Rs $283 \frac{1}{2}$ = Rs $\frac{567}{2}$
∴ Number of tickets sold = $(\frac{567}{2} \div \frac{21}{2})$

= $(\frac{567}{2} \times \frac{2}{21})$ [âˆµ Reciprocal of $\frac{21}{2}$ = $\frac{2}{21}$ ]

= $\frac{567}{21} = 27$

Hence, the boy sold 27 tickets of the charity show.
