many 50.paise coins as one rupee coins and the total money in this bank is 35.
How many coins of each kind are there?
Answers
Answer:
one rupee coins=14
50 paise coins=42
Step-by-step explanation:
let one rupee coins=x
then 50 paise coins=3x
total money= x+3x/2=35
2x+3x=70
5x=70
x=14
so
one rupee coins=14
50 paise coins=42
Numbers of 1 Rupee coins = 14
Number of 50 paise coins = 42
Given :-
A piggy bank has 1 Rupee and 50 paise coins
If there are three times as
many 50.paise coins as one rupee coins
Total money in piggy bank is Rs. 35
To find :- Number of coins in each denomination
Solution :-
Let the number of 1 Rupee coins in piggy bank be x
50 paise coins in piggy bank = 3 times as many as 1 Rupee coins = 3(x) = 3x
First we need to find how much money in the form of 50 paise and 1 Rupee.
Money in the form of 1 Rupee coins = 1(3x) = Rs. x
Now we need to money in the form of 50 paise coins.
We know that 50 Paise = Rupee/2 i.e, 1/2
So, Money in the form of 50 paise coins = 1/2 (3x) = Rs. 3x/2
Total money = Rs. 35
Total money = Money in the form of 1 Rupee coins + Money in the form of 50 paise coins
According to the question :-
Equation formed :-
Therefore Number of 1 Rupee coins = x = 14
Therefore Number of 50 paise coins = x = 10Number of 1 rupee coins = 3x = 3(14) = 42
To check whether the answer is correct or not substitute number of coins of each denomination in the equation that is formed to solve.
