Question

:) The bus fare of 12 passengers is Rs 540. If the fare is increased by Rs 5 per

passenger, how many passengers can travel for Rs 750?​

Answer 1

15 passengers

Explanation:

Original price,

Fare for 12 passengers = Rs 540

Fare for 1 passenger =
`(540)/(12) = 45`

Increased price,

Fare for 1 passenger = 45 + 5 = Rs 50

Let fare for X passengers be 750

`x * 50 = 750`

`x = (750)/(50)`

`x = 15`

Hence, 15 passengers can travel for Rs 750.

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..
