This question is very confusing because there are 2 variables, the number of notes and the value of the notes. Such a question has many ways to solve but I chose to show this method of guess and check. Have a look!

This question makes use of ratios to solve for the answer. They key concept here is that the total amount does not change and must be the same. From that point on, students should be able to take it on and solve the question.
