Garima had only Rs. 200. Rs. 500 and Rs. 2000 notes in her wallet. She goes to Shoppers Stop. purchases some dresses and gives half of her Rs. 2000 notes & in turn receives same number of Rs. 200 notes. She then goes to a restaurant and gives all her Rs. 500 notes and receives thirty Rs. 2000 notes, which increases the number of Rs. 2000 notes she had by. 75%.- If now she has fifty Rs. 200 notes. what were the original number of Rs. 2000 and Rs. 200 notes she had at the start?
Garima had x notes of Rs 2000. She gave x/2 notes of Rs 2000. She is left with x-x/2 = x/2 notes
x/2 + 30 = 1.75x/2
=> x= 80
So, she remains 80/2 = 40 Rs 200 notes
So she must be having 50-40 = 10 Rs 200 notes.
