-This looks easy but it is not because everyone will arrive at a different answer…

shopkeeper with a ₦1000 Note.
The Shopkeeper had no change on him so he
went to another Shopkeeper John his neighbour and collected ₦1000 change in ₦200 denominations, with which he settled the lady and she left.
A little while later, John came back angrily after
he discovered the ₦1000 note he was given by the shopkeeper was fake, and demanded a replacement.
