$10 |
Number |
10 u |
9 u |
Total value |
5 x 10 u = 50 u |
10 x 9 u = 90 u |
(a)
Change ratio into units.
Number of $5 notes = 10 u
Number of $10 notes = 9 u
Total number of notes
= 10 u + 9 u
= 19 u
(b)
Difference in the number of notes
= 10 u - 9 u
= 1 u
(c)
Total value of $5 notes
= 10 u x 5
= 50 u
Total value of $10 notes
= 9 u x 10
= 90 u
Total value of notes
= 50 u + 90 u
= 140 u
(d)
Difference in the value of notes
= 90 u - 50 u
= 40 u
Answer(s): (a) 19; (b) 1; (c) 140; (d) 40
