Let the 50 paise coins be x. Then,
No. of 25 paise coins will 2x.
And let Rs. 27 be 2700 paise.
According to question,
(50p * x) + (25p * 2x) = 2700p
⇒(50x + 50x)p = 2700p
paise got cancelled, Then,
⇒100x = 2700
which will evaluate to 27.
No. of 50 paise coins = x 
                                   =27
No. of 25 paise coins = 2x
                                   =2*27
                                   =54
Hence, Ram has 27 coins of 50 paise & 54 coins of 25 paise . And that's the answer...!!!!
