The relationship between the rates of the tickets for the theatre is: Balcony ticket is 20% more expensive than Gold ticket and Luxury ticket costs 70% of Gold ticket’s value more than the Balcony ticket’s value. The executive ticket costs 25% of the Luxury ticket cost and the Economy ticket is one-third the price of a Balcony ticket. The Balcony ticket costs Rs. 780 on weekends. The difference in the rates of Executive and economy tickets is:

• A. Rs. 41.25
• B. Rs. 55.8
• C. Rs. 48.75
• D. Rs. 52.75

Answer 1

The correct option is C Rs. 48.75

Price of balcony tickets = Rs. 780
Price of gold tickets = $\frac{780}{120}\times 100$ =Rs.650
Price of luxury tickets = $\frac{70}{100}\times 650+780=Rs.1235$
Price of executive tickets = $\frac{1}{4}\times 1235=Rs.308.75$
Price of economy tickets = $\frac{1}{3}\times 780=Rs.260$
Required difference = $308.75-260=Rs.48.75$
