Ramesh had some $2 bills and $5 bills in his wallet. There were 4 times as many $2 bills as $5 bills. Ramesh had $91 altogether. How many $2 bills did Ramesh have in total?
If there were x $5 bills, then
2*4x + 5x = 91
Now finish it off
If you had 7 * $5 = $35, you would need 28 * $2 = $56
$35 + $56 = $91
Sorry that I can't provide you with an equation.
To find the number of $2 bills that Ramesh had in total, we need to set up equations based on the given information.
Let's say Ramesh had x $5 bills. Since there were 4 times as many $2 bills as $5 bills, he had 4x $2 bills.
The value of a $2 bill is $2, so the total value of $2 bills is 2 * (4x) = 8x.
The value of a $5 bill is $5, so the total value of $5 bills is 5 * x = 5x.
According to the problem, Ramesh had $91 altogether. So we can set up the equation:
8x + 5x = 91
Combining like terms, we have:
13x = 91
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 13:
x = 91 / 13
x = 7
Therefore, Ramesh had 7 $5 bills. Since he had 4 times as many $2 bills, he had 4 * 7 = 28 $2 bills in total.
