The table shows the number of adult and child tickets sold at a museum on three days. An adult ticket costs Rs 50 and a child ticket costs Rs 20.
What was the total income (in Rs) of the museum from ticket sales on Saturday?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 15,000
Income from each kind of ticket = number sold × price; the day’s income is the sum of the two.
Saturday: 240 adult tickets and 150 child tickets
Adult tickets \(=240\times50=12000\)
Child tickets \(=150\times20=3000\)
Total \(=12000+3000=15000\)
The museum earned Rs 15,000 on Saturday.
