Solution
Let the number of 50notesbexletthenumberof100 notes be y then,given x+y=170 (1) 50x+100y=10000 That is x+2y=200 (2)
Now substract equation(1) from equation (2)
y=200-170 =30 Now we need to determine x Put the value of y in equation (1) That is x+30=170 x=170-30 =140 Therefore Total number of 50notes=140Totalnumberof100 Notes=30 So total amount constituted by 50$ notes =50*140 =7000
