Time Left: 10:11
If there are 51 rupees consisting of coins of 1 rupees, 50 paisa and 25 paisa. Number of 50 paisa coin is double that of number of 1
rupee coin and four times that of 25 paisa, and then what is the number of 50 paisa coins in the collection.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of 50 paisa coins is 48.

Explanation:

Total amount= Rs.51

Number of 1 rupee coin = x

So, number of 50 paisa coin= 2x

Also, 2x = 4 * Number of 25 paisa coins

So, Number of 25 paisa coins = 2x/4

So now we can write as: ( converting all into paisa)

100x+ 2x*50 + (2x/4)* 25= 5100

On solving this we get x as 24

So, the number of 50 paisa coins is 24*2 = 48.
