The number of  Rs. 5 stamps is 143 and the number of Rs. 2 stamps is 154.

Given:

A man purchased 297 stamps of Rs. 5 and Rs. 2 for 1023.

To find:

The number of each of the stamps​.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of stamps of Rs. 5 and Rs. 2 be x and y respectively.  

Then as per the question

x+y=297                                           ....(1)

5x+2y=1023                                     ....(2)

Now, solve these two equations.

From first equation, y=297-x

Substitute this in second equation.

5x+2(297-x)=1023

5x+594-2x=1023

3x=429

x=143

Substitute this in first equation.

143+y=297

y=154.

Hence, there are 143 Rs. 5 stamps and 154 Rs. 2 stamps.
