Answer» Let no. Of 20 notes be n and no. Of 5 notes be mThen 20n + 5m = 380.....(1)If no. Of notes interchangedThen 5n + 20m = 320.....(2) On solving given equations20m - 5/4m = 320-9575m = 225x4m = 3x4 = 12 Putting value of m in equation (1)20n + 60 = 38020n = 320n = 16 Number of 20 notes = 16Number of 5 notes = 12 |
