The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the reasoning provided in the video transcript. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Variables**: Let the number of members in the club be \( n \). According to the problem, each member contributes as much in rupees as the number of members, which means each member contributes \( n \) rupees and \( n \) paisa. 2. **Convert Paisa to Rupees**: Since there are 100 paisa in 1 rupee, the contribution of each member in rupees can be expressed as: \[ \text{Contribution per member} = n + \frac{n}{100} = n \left(1 + \frac{1}{100}\right) = n \cdot \frac{101}{100} \] 3. **Total Contribution**: The total contribution from all members can be calculated as: \[ \text{Total Contribution} = n \cdot \frac{101}{100} \cdot n = \frac{101n^2}{100} \] 4. **Set Up the Equation**: We know the total contribution is Rs 3636. Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{101n^2}{100} = 3636 \] 5. **Solve for \( n^2 \)**: To eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 100: \[ 101n^2 = 363600 \] Now, divide both sides by 101: \[ n^2 = \frac{363600}{101} \] 6. **Calculate \( n^2 \)**: Performing the division: \[ n^2 = 3600 \] 7. **Find \( n \)**: Taking the square root of both sides gives: \[ n = \sqrt{3600} = 60 \] 8. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the number of members in the club is \( n = 60 \). ### Final Answer: The number of members in the club is **60**.
