Answer:
Let the Rs.50 notes by x and Rs.100 notes be y.
∴ Total notes =(x+y) notes
Total notes (given) =25 notes
∴(x+y)=25⟶(i)
Total money Meena has=50x+100y
Total money (given) =Rs.2000
On simplification,
x+2y=40⟶(ii)
On substraction (i) and (ii),
−y=−15
y=15 notes
putting y in (i)
x+y=25
x=10 notes
∴ Rs.50 notes=10 notes.
Rs.100 notes=15 notes.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let no. of Rs. 50 notes = X
no. of Rs. 100 notes = y
Total notes = 25
⇒ x+y=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
→ 50×25-50y + 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 notes = 15
