The railway fare for 61 km is Rs 183. Find the fare for 53 km.

Answer

To solve the problem of finding the railway fare for 53 km when the fare for 61 km is Rs 183, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Find the fare per kilometer
First, we need to calculate the fare for 1 km. We do this by dividing the total fare for 61 km by the distance (61 km).

\[ \text{Fare per km} = \frac{\text{Total fare for 61 km}}{\text{Distance in km}} = \frac{183}{61} \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Fare per km} = 3 \text{ Rs/km} \]

### Step 2: Calculate the fare for 53 km
Now that we know the fare per kilometer, we can find the fare for 53 km by multiplying the fare per kilometer by the distance (53 km).

\[ \text{Fare for 53 km} = \text{Fare per km} \times \text{Distance in km} = 3 \times 53 \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Fare for 53 km} = 159 \text{ Rs} \]

### Conclusion
Thus, the railway fare for 53 km is Rs 159.
