Total value |
10 x 5 u = 50 u |
50 x 3 u = 150 u |
(a)
Change ratio into units.
Number of $10 notes = 5 u
Number of $50 notes = 3 u
Total number of notes
= 5 u + 3 u
= 8 u
(b)
Difference in the number of notes
= 5 u - 3 u
= 2 u
(c)
Total value of $10 notes
= 5 u x 10
= 50 u
Total value of $50 notes
= 3 u x 50
= 150 u
Total value of notes
= 50 u + 150 u
= 200 u
(d)
Difference in the value of notes
= 150 u - 50 u
= 100 u
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) 2; (c) 200; (d) 100
