During the football world cup, one match was held every day. Italy vs Germany match was held on a Saturday and was attended by 21,486 people. Brazil vs France match was held on a Sunday and was attended by 29,713 people. Each ticket to the stadium costs ₹10. For the matches held over the weekend, what was the approximate amount generated by the sale of tickets if the number of spectators is rounded off using the general rule?

Number of spectators watching Italy vs Germany on Saturday = 21,486

The number of spectators (21,486) on Saturday can be rounded off to the nearest ten thousand places as 20,000.

Number of spectators watching Brazil vs France on Sunday = 29,713

The number of spectators (29,713) on Sunday can be rounded off to the nearest ten thousand places as 30,000.

Thus, the approximate number of spectators for the two matches = 20,000 + 30,000 = 50,000

Cost of each ticket = ₹10

Thus, the approximate amount generated by the sale of tickets = ₹10 × 50,000

= ₹5,00,000
