The problem statement gives a relation between the amount removed from one bag and the amount removed from the other. It asks for the amount remaining in each bag. Thus, there are several choices for variables in this problem, some choices resulting in more complicated equations than others.
Let's do it this way: let x represent the amount remaining in bag 1. Then the amount removed from bag 1 is (100-x). The amount remaining in bag 2 is 2x, so the amount removed from that bag is (100-2x). The problem statement tells us the relationship between amounts removed:
... (100 -x) = 3(100 -2x)
... 100 -x -3(100 -2x) = 0 . . . . . . subtract the right side
... 5x -200 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses and collect terms
... x -40 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 5
... x = 40 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 40
- 40 kg is left in the first bag
- 80 kg is left in the second bag

The amount removed from the first bag is 60 kg. The amount removed from the second is 20 kg. The amount removed from the first bag is 3 times the amount removed from the second bag, as described.
Answer:
1. >
2. <
3. =
Step-by-step explanation:
100x8=800, 4*7=28, multiplied by 25 is 700, therefore making 800 greater than 700. Whenever comparing two multiplication problems, multiplying large numbers produces large results, so whichever starts larger will have an end result that is larger. 100 was large and it is smaller to its counter 25.
36 elevens really means 11x36, which is 396. 40 elevens really means 40x11, which is 440 minus 11x3 which is 407. 407 is greater than 396. The same logic applies here as the previous answer, the only difference is that the removal of three elevens is still larger than 36 elevens in this case.
12x24=288, 6x24=144, doubled makes it 288. In this case, the six is half of the twelve to begin with and then is made up for later by the fact that it is doubled.
When I solve math questions like these, I ignore the fact that it doesn't want a mathematical answer, do the math anyway and pull logic from it. (If your teacher checks, do it on a separate piece of paper, and then toss it.)

Answer:
654000 Rupees
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that the opera house was full every day then it would be 872 x 50 for the price of 1 day
872 x 50 = 43600
We multiple that number by the amount of days open so is would be 43600 x 15
43600 x 15 = 654000
Therefore it will make 654000 Rupees
