Question

Purse contains $Rs.250$ in the domination of $Rs.10$ and $Rs.50$. If the no. of $Rs.10$ notes is one more than that of $50$ notes.

Answer 1

We have,

No. of notes of $Rs.50=x$

No. of $Rs.10$ notes $=x+1$

According to the question,

Total amount in purse $=250$

$50x+10x+10=250$

$60x=240$

$x=4$

Number of $Rs.50$ notes $=4$

Number of $Rs.10$ notes $=4+1=5$

Hence, this is the answer.
