Question

A bag contains 50 p, 25 p and 10 p coins in the ratio 5: 9: 4, amounting to rs. 206. Find the number of coins of each type respectively. * 1 point

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the ratio then

50p coin =5x

25p coin =9x

10p coin =4x

Then

5x + 9x + 4x =206

18x = 206

X = 206/18

X = 11.5

Approx 12

50p coin = 5*12=60

25p coin = 9*12=108

10p coin = 4*12= 48
