Q.6 There is discount of 10% on total fare for a round trip and for group of 4 and more, there
is 5% discount on total fare. If one way single person fare is Rs.100. Find the group of
5 tourist round trip fare?
Solution: (Rs.850)
Total round trip fare for group of 5 tourist without discount
= 5 200 = Rs. 1000
(i) Discount for round trip = = 10 1000 Rs.100
100
(ii) Discount for having of group of 5 tourist = = 5 1000 Rs. 50
100
4 Total discount = Rs. 150
Total round trip fare for group of 5 tourist after discount
= Rs. 1000 Rs. 150
= Rs. 850
