Figure out how many bills are in each envelope by using the clues provided:

The 1st envelope has two more bills than half the number that are in the 2nd envelope.
If you double the number of notes in the 3rd envelope, it would have the same number as the 1st and 2nd together.
The 3rd envelope has more than the 1st, but fewer than the 2nd.
