Question
The cost of a taxi ride from Mumbai to Pune is Rs. 700 per
person. The bus fare for one person on the same route is one-third of the total taxi fare for 6 people. What is the bus fare for 12 people?Solution
ATQ;
Taxi ride fare for 6 persons = 6 × 700 = Rs. 4200
Bus fare for 1 person = 1/3 × 4200 = Rs. 1400
Hence for 12 persons = 12 × 1400 = Rs. 16800
