The entry ticket at a fun park was increased in the ratio 7 : 9, due to which footfalls fell in the ratio 13 : 11. What is the new daily collection (in Rs.), if the daily collection before the price hike was Rs. 2,27,500?

Since Daily collection = (Price of one ticket) × (Footfall per day)

∴ Ratio of daily collection before and after change = (7 × 13) : (9 × 11) = 91 : 99

Since the daily collection before price hike was Rs. 227500;

∴ New daily collection = 227500 × 99/91 = Rs. 247500
