Before sale

Number of tickets -> 4u

Amount collected -> 4u × $9 = $36u

During sale

Number of tickets (increased by 50%) -> 1.5 × 4u = 6u

Amount collected (increased by 25%) -> 1.25 × 36u = $45u

Price of ticket during sale -> $45u ÷ 6u = $7.50

usual number of tickets sold ——- 100p

usual price ——- $9

amount collected from sales of tickets at usual price ——- $900p

During the Great Singapore Sale,

number of tickets sold ——- 150p

$900p x 1.25 ——- $1125p

amount collected from sales of tickets at usual price ——- $1125p

discounted price ——- 1125p/150p = 7.50

Ans : $7.50.
