360 = 2 crore.
1 = 2crore /360,
= 500000.

Sum of cricket and hockey = 81+63= 144,

Therefore 144 = 144* 500000/9,
= 8000000.

360= 2crore (20000000)
Therefore 81 is 4500000 for cricket
And then for hockey is 63 which equals to 3500000.
Now the sum of cricket and hockey is 8000000. So, the answer is B.

How it come 0.8croes(800000)?
Yagnik said:   7 years ago
Cricket +hockey together. So, 81+63.

Then 81 and 63 is not a percentage. So, divided by 360. And 2 crore spent on all games per year. Then find the how many rupees spent into cricket and hockey.
