Imagine you have an infinite amount of five different banknotes (10 euros, 50,100,200,500). You have to put them in a box and find all possible types(modes) of doing that. Rules are:
After 10 euros you must put a banknote of 50 or 100
After 50 euros you must put a banknote of 10 or 200
After 100 euros you must put a banknote of 10 or 100
After 200 euros you must put a banknote of 50 or 500
After 500 euros you must put a banknote of 200 or 10
Every time you get a number of how many banknotes you have to put.
For example: You have to put 3 banknotes:
All the possible combinations are:
(10,50,10) (10,50,200) (10,100,10) (10,100,100)
(50,10,50) (50,10,100) (50,200,50) (50,200,500)
(100,10,50) (100,10,200) (100,100,10) (100,100,100)
(200,50,10) (200,50,200) (200,500,200) (200,500,10)
(500,200,50) (500,200,500) (500,10,50) (500,10,100)
The number of possible combinations is 20. What are the total number of combinations if one draws ‘n’ banknotes?
