(d) Name the cities for which the number of tickets sold is more than 20.
(e) Fill in the blanks
The number of tickets sold for Delhi and Jaipur together exceeds the total number of tickets sold for Patna and Chennai by ___.

Answer 1

(a) Total tickets sold = 80+50+100+20+40 = 290.
(b) The maximum number of tickets were sold for Delhi, i.e. 100 tickets,
(c) The minimum number of tickets were sold for Chennai i.e. 20 tickets,
(d) The cities for which the number of tickets sold is more than 20 are Patna, Jaipur, Delhi and Guwahati.
(e) Number of tickets sold for Delhi and Jaipur together = 100+50 = 150.

Number of tickets sold for Patna and Chennai together = 80+20 = 100.
$\therefore$ Required difference = 150-100 = 50.
