Question

Mr. Dey took out Rs.5000 from his bank. He took 40 notes of 50 Rupees each and the remaining amount in 20 Rupees notes. How many 20 Rupees notes did he take? *

Answer 1

150

Explanation:

We know that he took out Rs.5000 from the bank and that he took 40 of the 50 Rupees notes. We have to subtract to find the amount he took in 20 Rupees notes and then divide by 20 to find the number. 40*50 = 2000 and 5000 - 2000 = 3000. After that, 3000/20 = 150, so that means that Mr. Dey took out 150 notes of 20 rupees.

Answer 2

150

Explanation:

Start with Rs.5000.

40 notes of 50 Rupees each = 40 * Rs.50 = Rs.2000

Rs.5000 - Rs.2000 = Rs.3000

He took Rs.3000 in 20 Rupees notes.

Rs.3000/Rs.20 = 150

Answer: He took 150 20-Rupee notes
