Some tickets of Rs.200 and some of Rs.100, of a drama in a theatre were sold. The number of tickets for Rs.200 sold was 20 more than the number of tickets for Rs.100. The total amount received by the theatre by the sale of tickets was Rs.37000. Find the number of Rs.100 tickets sold.

let the number of Rs.100 ticket sold be x

Number of Rs.200 ticket sold is x + 20


According to given conditions 100x + 200(x + 20) = 37000


300x + 4000 = 37000


Adding - 4000 on both sides


300x = 33000


Dividing both side by 300


x = 110


Number of Rs.100 tickets sold are 110
