Total value |
10 x 9 u = 90 u |
100 x 8 u = 800 u |
(a)
Change ratio into units.
Number of $10 notes = 9 u
Number of $100 notes = 8 u
Total number of notes
= 9 u + 8 u
= 17 u
(b)
Difference in the number of notes
= 9 u - 8 u
= 1 u
(c)
Total value of $10 notes
= 9 u x 10
= 90 u
Total value of $100 notes
= 8 u x 100
= 800 u
Total value of notes
= 90 u + 800 u
= 890 u
(d)
Difference in the value of notes
= 800 u - 90 u
= 710 u
Answer(s): (a) 17; (b) 1; (c) 890; (d) 710
