Answer:
Number of 50-paise coins = 34
Number of 25-paise coins = 68
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Sumitra has 'x' 50-paise coins & 'y' 25-paise coins.
She has rs 34
So rs 1 = 100 paise
rs 34 = 34*100 = 3400 paise
50x + 25y = 3400 ----------- (1)
Given that , y = 2x ------------(2)
from equation (1) & (2) we get
50x + 25*(2x) = 3400
50x + 50x = 3400
100x = 3400
x = 34
From (2) we get
y = 2x = 2*34 = 68
So,
Number of 50-paise coins = 34
Number of 25-paise coins = 68
