A monthly bus ticket costs 20 percent more than a single ticket. A week's extension can be had for the former by paying 10% of the monthly ticket's cost. If the money paid for the monthly ticket (with extension) is Rs 660, then the price of the single ticket is :

Rs 580

Rs 500

Rs 560

Rs 600

✅ Correct Option: 2

Let monthly ticket = M. With 10% extension: $1.10M = 660$ , so $M = 600$ .

Monthly = 20% more than single: $M = 1.20 \times S$ .

$600 = 1.20 \times S$ , so $S = 500$ .
