Final answer:

Jaya had 10 five-rupee notes and 16 ten-rupee notes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this problem step by step:

  1. Let the number of five-rupee notes be x.
  2. The number of ten-rupee notes is 6 more than the number of five-rupee notes, so it is x + 6.
  3. The total value of the five-rupee notes is 5x rupees, and the total value of the ten-rupee notes is 10(x + 6) rupees.
  4. She also has 5 two-rupee notes, which have a total value of 5 * 2 = 10 rupees.
  5. According to the problem, the total value of all the notes is 220 rupees. So, we can write the equation: 5x + 10(x + 6) + 10 = 220.
  6. Simplifying the equation: 5x + 10x + 60 + 10 = 220. Combining the x terms and simplifying further: 15x + 70 = 220.
  7. Subtracting 70 from both sides of the equation: 15x = 150.
  8. Dividing both sides of the equation by 15 to solve for x: x = 10.

So, Jaya had 10 five-rupee notes and 10 + 6 = 16 ten-rupee notes.

Answer:

No. of five-rupee note: 10

No. of ten-rupee note: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the number of five-rupee notes as
\sf x, the number of ten-rupee notes as
\sf y, and the number of two-rupee notes as
\sf z.

According to the given information:

  • The total value of five-rupee notes is
    \sf 5x rupees.
  • The total value of ten-rupee notes is
    \sf 10y rupees.
  • The total value of two-rupee notes is
    \sf 2z rupees.

Jaya had a total of 220 rupees, so we can write the equation:


\sf 5x + 10y + 2z = 220

Now, we are given two additional pieces of information:

  • She had 6 ten-rupee notes more than the five-rupee notes, which can be expressed as
    \sf y = x + 6.
  • She had 5 two-rupee notes, which can be expressed as
    \sf z = 5.

Now, we have a system of three equations:


\sf \begin{aligned}5x + 10y + 2z &= 220 \\y &= x + 6 \\z &= 5\end{aligned}

Substitute the value of
\sf z into the first equation:


\sf 5x + 10y + 2(5) = 220

Simplify:


\sf 5x + 10y + 10 = 220

Subtract 10 from both sides:


\sf 5x + 10y + 10 -10= 220-10


\sf 5x + 10y = 210

Now, substitute the value of
\sf y from the second equation into this new equation:


\sf 5x + 10(x + 6) = 210

Distribute:


\sf 5x + 10x + 60 = 210

Combine like terms:


\sf 15x + 60 = 210

Subtract 60 from both sides:


\sf 15x + 60-60 = 210-60


\sf 15x = 150

Divide by 15:


\sf (15x)/(15)=(150)/(15)


\sf x = 10

Now that we have the value of
\sf x, substitute it back into the equation for
\sf y:


\sf y = x + 6 = 10 + 6 = 16

So, Jaya has 10 five-rupee notes and 16 ten-rupee notes.
