let the number of 10 paisa be x and 50 paisa =(80-x)
a/q
10x+50(80-x)=2400
or, 10x+ 4000-50x= 2400
or, -40x = -1600
or, x = 40
hence number of 10 paisa coin 40
and 80 paisa coin 80-40= 40

Hey Buddy
Here's The Answer
-----------------------------------
Let ( x ) be 10 paise coin and ( y ) be 50 paise coin
Given
80 coin of 10 paise and 50 paise
=> x + y = 80______( 1 )
total value 24 rupees
we know , 1 rupee = 100 paise
=> 10x + 50y = 24 × 100
=> 10x + 50y = 2400
taking 10 common
=> x + 5y = 240______( 2 )
By solving eq (1) and (2)
by (1)
x + y = 80
x = 80 - y
putting value of x in (2)
x + 5y = 240
80 - y + 5y = 240
4y = 240 - 80
4y = 160
y = 40
now putting value of (y) in (1)
x + y = 80
x + 40 = 80
x = 40
So there will be 40 coins of 10 paise
and 40 coins of 50 paise
