  1. Let number of notes be 2x,3x and 5x.
    According to question, 100x2x+50x3x+10x5x=4,00,000
    ⇒ 200x+150x+50x=4,00,000
    ⇒ 400x-4,00,000
    ⇒ 400x/400=4,00,000/400 [Dividing both sides by 400]
    ⇒ x=1000

    ⇒ 400x/400=4,00,000/400 [Dividing both sides by 400]
    ⇒ x=1000
    Hence, number of denominations of ₹100 notes = 2 x 1000 = 2000
    Number of denominations of ₹50 notes = 3 x 1000 = 3000
    Number of denominations of ₹10 notes = 5 x 1000 = 5000
    Therefore, required denominations of notes of ₹100, ₹50 and ₹10 are 2000, 3000 and
    5000 respectively.
