Question

Deveshi has a total of Rs. 590 as currency notes in the denominations

of Rs. 50. Rs. 20 and Rs. 10. The ratio of the number of Rs. 50

notes and Rs. 20 notes is 3:5. If she has a total of 25 notes. How

many notes of each denomination she has?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Devshi has 590 Rupees

RS50,20&10 are there ⇒ Total 25 notes

Rs50&Rs20 ⇒3:5

Notes of Rs50=3x

Notes of Rs20=5x

Notes of Rs10=25−(3x+5x)=25−8x.

Amount in 50 Rupee notes ⇒50×3x=150x

Amount in 20 Rupee notes ⇒20×5x=100x.

Amount in 10 Rupee notes ⇒10(25−8x)=250−80x

Total Amount =590

⇒150x+100x+250−80x=590

⇒250−80x=590−250

⇒170x=340

∴x=2

So Deveshi has

Notes of Rs.50=3(2)=6i.e;150(2)=300Rs.

Notes of Rs.20=5(2)=10i.e;100(2)=200Rs.

Notes of Rs.10=25−8(2)=9i.e;=90Rs
