Total amount in the bag=Rs 750
Let the number of rupee be 5x, number of 50 paisa coin be 8x and number of 25 paisa coin be 4x
According to the question
5x(1)+8x(0.5)+4x(0.25)=50
5x+4x+x=750
10x=750
x=75
Therefore,
Number of coin of rupee=5×75=375
Number of coin of 50 paisa =8×75=600
Number of coin of 25 paisa=4×75=300
