At a party there were 20 more women than men. The men paid Rs 30 each, the women Rs 20 each, and the total receipts 2600. How many men and women were there in the party?

Number of Men = 44;

Number of Women = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of men be x

At a party there were 20 more women than men. This means the number of women = x + 20

Since the men paid Rs 30 each, the women Rs 20 each, and the total receipts 2600. This will be represented in an equation as:

(30 × x) + [20 × (x + 20)] = 2600

30x + 20x + 400 = 2600

30x + 20x = 2600 - 400

50x = 2200

x = 2200/50

x = 44

The number of men = 44

Number of women = 44 + 20 = 64

i dont know i just need points

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48
