Solution

Let the number of ten rupee notes = x
therefore , number of five rupee notes = x+3
Total money = 10*(number of ten rupee notes ) + 5 (number of five rupee notes)
= 10*x + 5*(x+3)
=10x +5x +15
=15x + 15
therefore ,
15x+15 = 195
15x = 195 - 15
15x = 180
or x = 180/15
x=12
Therefore number of ten rupee notes = 12
hence , number of five rupee notes = x+3
=12 + 3
=15

Hope this helps you 😀
