Question 1169667
.


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It can be solved algebraically, &nbsp;but it was solved so many <U>hundreds</U> of times at this forum that just became boring.


&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So, &nbsp;I better will solve it mentally, &nbsp;using the table below and "guessing-trial" method.



&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;- - - With the major goal to entertain you a bit. - - - (and myself, &nbsp;as well)



<pre>
      T      A      B      L      E


    y 10-notes  x 5-notes   sum   # of notes

      5            1         55      6

      4            3         55      7

      3            5         55      8     <<<---===  it is the solution
</pre>

Solved.
