Answers
Let no. of Rs. 50 notes = x
no. of Rs. 100 notes = y
Total notes = 25
Xty= 25
x = 25-y
total amount only in Rs. 50 notes = 50x
total amount only in Rs. 100 notes = 100y
Total amount 2000
50x +100y 2000
50(25-y)+100y 2000
50x25-50y + 100y = 2000
1250 +50 y = 2000
50y= 2000-1250 = 750
y= 750/50 = 15
x= 25-15 = 10
No. of Rs. 50 notes = 10
No. of Rs. 100 note

Rs 50 notes = 10 and Rs 100 notes = 15

Let total Rs 50 notes = x
and total Rs 100 notes = y
∴ Total notes = x + y
But we are given total notes = 25
Now, Meena has total money =50x + 100y
But we are given total money =Rs 2000
⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀
On substraction of ① and ②,
(x+y) - (x+2y) = 25 - 40
x + y - x - 2y = - 15
- y = - 15
⠀
Now, by putting y in ①,
x+y=25
x + 15 = 25
x = 25 - 15
∴ Rs 50 notes, x = 10
and Rs 100 notes, y = 15
