Question

8. (a) Vicky has 5 times as many 2-rupee coins as he has 5-rupee coins. If he has in
of 345, how many coins of each denomination does he have?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Coins of 5 rupees=23 coins

Coins of 2 rupees=115 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 rupees coins be '5x'.

So, coins of rupees 5 be 'x'.

Total sum of money given in question is 345.

Value of 2 rupees coins= 2×5x.

= 10x

Value of rupees 5 coins = 5×x

= 5x

According to question:

10x+5x = 345

15x = 345

x = 345÷15

x = 23

So, No. of rupees 5 coins = x = 23 coins..

No. of rupees 2 coins = 5x = 115 coins..

Hope this answer helps you!!!
