The correct answer is (b) – 16 notes of Rs. 2,000; 12 notes of Rs. 500; and 10 notes of Rs. 200, which adds up to a total of Rs. 40,000. The configuration of notes in (a) would add up to Rs. 32,200.

At their wedding, Riz and Rekha received gifts amounting to a total of...
Analysis:
To solve this problem, we need to determine the number of currency notes of each denomination received by Riz and Rekha at their wedding.

Given Information:
- Total value of gifts received: Rs. 1,00,000
- Cash received: more than Rs. 35,000
- Denominations of currency notes: Rs. 2000, Rs. 500, Rs. 200
- Number of notes of each denomination: 10, 12, 16

Calculation:
1. Let's assume the number of Rs. 2000 notes is x, the number of Rs. 500 notes is y, and the number of Rs. 200 notes is z.
2. From the given information, we can form the following equations:
- 2000x + 500y + 200z > 35000 (total cash received is more than Rs. 35,000)
- x + y + z = 38 (total number of notes received)
- x + y + z = 38
- 10x + 12y + 16z = 38 (total number of notes of each denomination)
3. Solving the above equations, we get x = 16, y = 12, z = 10.
Therefore, the correct number of currency notes of each denomination received by Riz and Rekha is:
- 16 notes of Rs. 2,000
- 12 notes of Rs. 500
- 10 notes of Rs. 200
Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Directions: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions given beside.The introduction of digital payment systems has helped facilitate high-value transactions and reduce the dependence on currency notes. Accordingly, the RBI Annual Report 2021-22 observed that the payment systems recorded a robust growth of 63.6 percent in terms of volume during 2021-22 on top of the expansion of 26.7 percent in the previous year. In value terms, the growth was 23.1 percent as against a decline of 13.4 percent in the previous year, mainly due to robust growth observed in the large value payment system, namely, RTGS. The share of digital transactions in the total volume of noncash retail payments increased to 99.3 percent during 2021-22, up from 98.8 percent in the previous year. The Annual Report further mentioned that the total turnover of digital payments in value terms was 1,744.14 lakh crore as compared with 1,414.59 lakh crore in 2020-21. In terms of volume, the total digital turnover was 7,19,531 lakhs as compared with 4,37,455 lakhs in 2021. This shows that digital payments have picked up. In the above context, it is pertinent to mention that a survey conducted by RBI in 2020 of households revealed that their preference for digital payments has increased. The survey concluded that the Pandemic induced “switch to digital” is likely to be permanent if there are significant changes in the underlying enablers such as enhancement in the payment infrastructure, more merchant onboarding, reduction in frauds, greater customer trust in digital payments, and enhanced ease of use of such payment modes. This would ensure that the recent shift in preferences towards digital payments is not just a temporary spike but a permanent behavioural shift.One important issue in this context is that the Rs.2000 notes are required to be replaced with other bank notes. From the data published by the RBI, we ascertain that the preferred notes for replacement will be 500 denomination as the share of these notes is higher at 22,77,340 crore accounting for 73.3 percent of the total. There could be a possibility of printing more 500 denomination bank notes. To meet this exigency, the RBI has taken a sufficient time of four months. However, the efficient delivery of the notes depends on the estimates of the bank branches to make an indent to the currency chest to get the amount. The bank branches should work efficiently so that hardship is not faced by the public. The RBI has already issued a circular to the banks to this effect.Q. Which of the following are reasonable explanations for replacing the Rs. 2000 note with other bank notes, according to the passage?
