A bag contains rupees, fifty paise & twenty -five paisa coins in the proportion 2:6:8.If the total amount is Rs. 210, then find the number of coins of each kind.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the coins in ratio is 2x:6x:8x,

now total amount is (1×2x)+(1/2×6x)+(1/4×8x)=210

now solving above equation

2x+3x+2x=210

7x=210

x=30

so number of all coins are

2x ,6x , 8x

put the value of x

2×30,6×30,8×30

60,180,240 coins if 1 rupee,fifty paise and twenty five paise
