Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the entertainment programme, 250 tickets were sold at Rs. 400. This means that the total amount for which the 250 tickets were sold is
250 × 400 = Rs. 100000
If the entertainment tax is 40% on ticket of Rs. 400, then the amount of tax collected from 250 tickets would be
40/100 × 100000 = Rs. 40000
Also, 500 tickets were sold at Rs. 100. This means that the total amount for which the 500 tickets were sold is
500 × 100 = Rs. 50000
If the entertainment tax is 20% on ticket of Rs. 100, then the amount of tax collected from 500 tickets would be
20/100 × 50000 = Rs. 10000
The total amount of entertainment tax that was collected from the programme is
40000 + 10000 = Rs. 50000
