A bag contains rs 90, comprising 50 paise and 10 paise coins .If the ratio of 50 paise , 25 paise and 10 paise coins is 2:3:5, then the number of 25 paise coins will be.....?

Answer 1

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio= 2:3:5

50 ps, 25 ps and 10 ps coins respectively= 2x, 3x,5x

The total value=(2x*1/2)+(3x*1/4)+(5x*1/10)=9x/4

i.e. x=40

and number of 25 ps coins = 3*40=120 (ans.)
