Rahul has Rs. 340 in the denominations of Rs. 2 notes, Rs. 5 notes and Rs. 10 notes. The number of notes of each denomination is equal. What is the total number of notes that Rahul has?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 60
Total money = Rs. 340
Since Rahul has equal notes of each denomination, suppose he has total 3x notes.
2x + 5x + 10x = 340
17x = 340
x = 20
So, the total number of notes = 3 × 20 = 60
