There are 5 more $10-notes than $20-notes.
- What is the value of the extra 5 $10-notes?
- What is the value of one $10-note and one $20-note?
- How many $20 notes are there?
- How many $10 notes are there?
(a)
Value of the extra 5 $10 notes
= 5 x 10
= $50
(b)
Value of one $10-note and one $20-note
= 10 + 20
= $30
(c)
Number of $20 notes
= (650 - 50) ÷ 30
= 600 ÷ 30
= 20
(d)
Number of $10 notes
= 20 + 5
= 25
Answer(s): (a) $50; (b) $30; (c) 20; (d) 25
