Question

A sum of rupees 8400 is made up of 50, 20, 10 and 5 rupee note. the number of 10 rupee notes is five times the number of 5 rupee notes, four times the number of 20 rupee notes and ten times the number of 50 rupees note. what is the number of notes in each denomination.

Answer 1

Let us take a group of 20 ten rupees notes, 4 five rupee notes, 5 twenty rupee notes and 2 fifty rupee notes. They add up to Rs. 420 in total. When this is divided by 8400, it gives a quotient of 20. The above group of notes is piled up 20 times. We get 400 ten rupee notes, 80 five rupee notes, 100 twenty rupee notes and 40 fifty rupee notes.
