At a football match, the price of child ticket is Rs.240 less than the adult ticket. There are 18,500 adults and 2500 children attending the match. Total amount paid for tickets is Rs.41,400,000. What is the price of one adult ticket?

Answer: Rs.2000
Explanation
  1. Let the price of an adult ticket be x
  2. The price of a child ticket is x - 240
  3. 18500x + 2500(x-240) = 41400000
  4. 18500x + 2500x - 600000 = 41400000
  5. 21000x = 42000000
  6. x = 42000000 / 21000 = 2000
