Question

A bag contains one rupee 50-paise and 25-paise coins in the ratio 2:3:5. their total value is rs.114

Answer 1

we know,
50 paise = 0.5 rupee
25 paise = 0.25 rupee
now,
let the number of 1 rupee coin be 2x
the number of 0.5 rupee coin be 3x
& the number of 0.25 rupee coin be 5x
Now according to the question,
2x+3/2x+5/4x=144
8x+6x+5x = 144*4
19x = 576
x= 576/19
x≈30
so,
no of 1 rupee coin=60
no of 50 paise coin=90
no of 25 paise coin =150

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

50 paise = 0.5 rupee

25 paise = 0.25 rupee

now,

convert paise in to ruppes

let the number of 1 rupee coin be 2x  *1= 2x

the number of 0.5 rupee coin be 3x *0.5= 1.5x

& the number of 0.25 rupee coin be 5x *0.25=1.25X

Now according to the question,

2x+1.5x+1.25x=114

X=24

1 reepes= 2*24=48 rupees

50 paise= 1.5x*24= 36 rupees

25 paise =1.25*24=30 rupees
