उत्तर
Given, total number of currency notes = 175
Let the total number of notes of ₹ 500 be x.
Then, total number of notes of ₹ 1000 = 175 – x
∵ Total amount which lady had = ₹ 100000 ...[Given]
According to the question,
500x + (175 – x)1000 = 100000
⇒ 500x + 175000 – 1000x = 100000
⇒ – 500x = 100000 – 175000
⇒ – 500x = – 75000
⇒ x = `-75000xx ((-1)/500)`
∴ x = 150
Therefore, total number of notes of ₹ 500 = 150
And total number of notes of ₹ 1000 = 175 – 150 = 25
