A boy has a total of ₨. 740 in the denominations of two rupee, five rupee, ten rupee and Twenty rupee notes. If the number of each denomination is equal, what is the total number of Notes the boy has? Correct Answer 80

Let ‘x’ be the number of each denomination.

As the number of each denomination is equal, the equation for the question can be written as:

2x + 5x + 10x + 20x = 740

=> 37x = 740

=> x = 740 ÷ 37

=> x = 20

So, total number of Notes the boy has = 4 × 20 = 80

Hence, ‘80’ is the correct answer.
