- You have notes of Rs10 and Rs50.

- Total number of notes is 12.

- The ratio of Rs10 to Rs50 notes is 1:2.

- This means for every Rs10 note, there are 2 Rs50 notes.

- Let's calculate:

- If the ratio is 1:2, then:

- Rs10 notes = 1x

- Rs50 notes = 2x

- Total notes = x + 2x = 3x

- Since 3x = 12, solving for x gives x = 4.

- Rs10 notes = 4

- Rs50 notes = 8

- Total money calculation:

- Rs10 notes: 4 * 10 = Rs40

- Rs50 notes: 8 * 50 = Rs400

- Total money = Rs40 + Rs400 = Rs440

- Correct Answer: Option 4: Rs440
