Explanation:

Let Rs. x be the fare of city Sunhet from city Amb and Rs. y be the fare of city Dehra from city Amb.
So, we will get the equations
Then, 2x + 3y = 77 ... (i) and
3x + 2y = 73 ... (ii)
Multiplying (i) by 3 & (ii) by 2 & subtracting, we get: 5y = 85 or y = 17.
Putting y = 17 in (i), we get: x = 13.
