    Total Notes = 375
    4x + 8x + 3x = 375
    15x = 375
    x = 25.
    Value of 5 rupee notes = 4*25 * 5 = Rs. 500.
    Value of 10 rupee notes = 8 * 25 * 10 = Rs. 2000.
    Value of 50 rupee notes = 3 * 25 * 50 = 3750
    Total Value = 3750 + 2000 +500 = 6250.
    Value of notes after spending Rs. 50 = 6200.
    So, Total number of 100 rupee notes would be,
    = 6200/100 = 62.
