Answer 1

The number of 50 paise would be $2x=2\times 47=94$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total amount = Rs. 329

Ratio of 1 rupee, 50 paise, 25 paise = 3:4:8

So, amount from Re. 1 = 3x

Amount from 50 paise = $0.5\times 4x=2x$

Amount from 25 paise = $8x\times 0.25=2x$

According to question, we get that

$3x+2x+2x=329\\\\7x=329\\\\x=\dfrac{329}{7}\\\\x=47$

Hence, the number of 50 paise would be $2x=2\times 47=94$
