Here is the answer .

Answer 2

$answer$

Let the no. of Rs. 5 coins be x

no of Rs. 2 will be 3x

Rs. 1 coin be. 160-3x-x = 160-4x

the amount I have,

from Rs. 2 coins= 3x= 3x2 = 6x

from Rs. 5 coins= x= 5x

from Rs. 1 coin = (160-4x)x1 = 160-4x

Total money Rs.300

6x+5x+160-4x = 300

7x + 160 = 300

7x = 140

x = 20

No. of Rs. 2 Coins = 3x20= 60

No. of Rs. 5 coins = x=20

No. of Re. 1 coin = 160-4x20 =80
