Step-by-step explanation:
sara had some 2 rupee and 5 rupee coins in her money box. she exchanged them for some 10 rupee coins. f the number of 5 rupee con is one less than the number of 2 rupee coins, then find the number of 5 rupee coin
Let say Number of Coins of Rs 5 = X
Then Number of Coins of Rs 2 = X + 1
Value of 5 Rs coins = 5X
Value of 2 Rs coins = 2X + 2
Total Value = 5X + 2X + 2
7X + 2
Let say Exchanged with Y coins of Rs 10
Then value of Rs 10 coins = 10Y
7X + 2 = 10 Y
X = 4 Y = 3
X = 14 Y = 10
X = 24 Y = 17
Number of 5 Rs coins = 4 , 14 , 24 .....
10n + 4 where n = 0 , 1 ,.......
Answer:
Let the number of 2-rupee coins be x.
Then, the number of 5-rupee coins will be x - 1
Total amount of 2-rupee coins = ₹2 * x
= ₹2x
Total amount of 5-rupee coins = ₹5 * ( x-1 )
= ₹5x - 5
Total amount in money box = ₹2x + ( ₹5x - 5 )
= ₹ 7x -5
{ if we have to make this amount a multiple of 10 then ₹2 's quantity should be a multiple of 10, and the quantity of ₹5 should be even to be a multiple of 10 }
Therfore, the quantity of ₹2 coins can be 5 (₹2 * 5 = ₹10, a multiple of 10)
and
₹5 coins is 1 less than the quantity of ₹2 coins so
The number of ₹ 5 coins will be = (5 - 1)
= 4
{ checking, (₹2 * 5) + (₹5 * 4) = ₹10 + ₹20 = ₹30
and ₹ 30 is a multiple of 10 }
