Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the number of notes of each currency be x.
So the ratio can be written as-
2x:3x
Since the total amount is ₹1600,
10(2x) + 20(3x) = 1600
20x + 60x =1600
80x = 1600
x = 20
The number of ₹10 notes= 2x = 2(20) = 40
The number of ₹20 notes = 3x = 3(20) = 60
The total number of notes = 60 + 40 = 100
