Question

The collection of tickets for the three different show ($1st$ shows,$2nd$ show,$3rd$ show) of circus on a particular day are in the ratio $2:4:5$ if the $2nd$ show collection is $Rs.15,000$ find the total collection and collection of the remaining two shows:

Answer 1

the given ratio can be written as $\frac{1}{2}:1:\frac{5}{4}$

Therefore collection of first day = $\frac{1}{2}\times 15000=7500$

Therefore collection of third day = $\frac{5}{4}\times 15000=18450$
