ANSWER: 25
The number of currency notes that were there is 25.
Given: Shivani counted 25 notes the first time. The second time she counted 1 more. To check, she counted again and found 1 note less than the second count.
To Find: The number of currency notes that were there.
Solution:
We need to proceed with the question by understanding the language of the question.
Let an actual number of currency notes be 'x'.
Number of notes counted in the first count = 25
So, the value of x = 25
Now, Number of notes counted in the second count = x + 1 = 25 + 1
= 26
Again, Number of notes counted in the third count = x - 1 = 26 - 1
= 25
So, ultimately the value of x = 25
Hence, the number of currency notes that were there is 25.
