2 x 8 u = 16 u |
10 x 3 u = 30 u |
(a)
Change ratio into units.
Number of $2 notes = 8 u
Number of $10 notes = 3 u
Total number of notes
= 8 u + 3 u
= 11 u
(b)
Difference in the number of notes
= 8 u - 3 u
= 5 u
(c)
Total value of $2 notes
= 8 u x 2
= 16 u
Total value of $10 notes
= 3 u x 10
= 30 u
Total value of notes
= 16 u + 30 u
= 46 u
(d)
Difference in the value of notes
= 30 u - 16 u
= 14 u
Answer(s): (a) 11; (b) 5; (c) 46; (d) 14
