Question

Symbiosis runs a Corporate Training Programme. At the end of running the first programme its total takings were Rs 38950. There were more than 45 but less than 100 particulars. What was the participant fee the programme?

• A. Rs 410
• B. Rs 450
• C. Rs 500
• D. Rs 510

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To solve this problem, we need to find the participant fee given the total takings and constraints on the number of participants. The total takings were Rs 38950, and the number of participants is more than 45 but less than 100.

Let the participant fee be represented as f and the number of participants as n. The equation representing the total takings is:

Total Takings = Participant Fee × Number of Participants

This gives us:

f × n = 38950

Constraints:

• 45 < n < 100

Given options for f are Rs 410, Rs 450, Rs 500, Rs 510. We test these values to see which satisfies the equation without producing a decimal or non-integer value for n.

Testing option Rs 410:

n = 38950 / 410 = 95

Since 95 is a whole number and within the given range (45 < 95 < 100), Rs 410 is a valid option.

Conclusion:

The participant fee is Rs 410 as it satisfies all conditions of the problem.
