II. For four tickets Suzie gave three notes all of which were of the same denomination above 50. The conductor re- turned four notes all of which were of the same denomination below 100.

Correct Answer: (1)
Solution:From statement I

Conductor returned four notes of same denomination 100×4 = 400
Balance amount =530−400
=Rs. 130=13×10
From statement II
(A) 100 x 3 = 300
50 x 4 = 200
10 x 4 = 40
Now, 300 - 200
= Rs. 100 (Not Possible)
300 - 40 = Rs. 260
(B) 500 x 3 = 1500
50 x 4 = 200
10 x 4 = 40
Now,
1500 - 200 = Rs. 1300
1500 - 40 = Rs. 1460
(C) 1000 x 3 = 3000
50 x 4 = 200
10 x 4 = 40
Now,
3000 - 200 = Rs. 2800
3000 - 40 = Rs. 2960
