Correct Answer: 2,47,500
Solution : Given: The price of the entry ticket increased in the ratio of 7 : 9 and footfalls fell in the ratio of 13 : 11. Daily collection = (Price of one ticket) × (Footfall per day) ⇒ Ratio of daily collection before and after the price hike = (7 × 13) : (9 × 11) = 91 : 99 Daily collection before the price hike was Rs. 2,27,500. So, the new daily collection = $227500×\frac{99}{91}$ = Rs. 247500 Hence, the correct answer is 2,47,500.
