let total no. of coins of denomination of 1, 2 and 5 be x, y and z respectively.
Given
x + y + z = 60..................eq.1
x + 2y + 5z = 120............eq.2 and
y = 2z
solving eq 1 and 2 we get
x + 2y + 5z = 120
x + y + z = 60
______________
y + 4z = 60
2z + 4z = 60
6z = 60
z = 10
then y = 2 x 10 = 20
from eq 1 we get
x + 20 + 10 = 60
x = 30
therefore
total no. of 1 coins = 30
total no. of 2 coins = 20
total no. of 5 coins = 10
