In an amusement park, all rides are equally priced, and the entry ticket for the park costs an additional ₹180. Rohan had 15 rides and paid a total of ₹1,380 for his visit to the park. How much (in ₹) in all would Rohan have to pay for his visit to the amusement park if he had opted for 20 rides?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 1780.

Let the cost of one ride be x.

Cost for Rohan when hr opted for 15 rides = 15x + 180

⇒ 1380 = 15x + 180

⇒ 15x = 1200

 ⇒ x = 80

Cost for Rohan when he opted for 20 rides = 180 + 20x

⇒ 180 + 20(80)

⇒ 180 + 1600 = 1780
