17
let no. of 50paise coins be x
∵total no. of coins = 17
∴no. of 10paise coins =17-x
total value =Rs4.50=450paise
value of  50paise coins =50  × x= 50x
value of  10paise coins =10 ×(17 - x)=170 - 10x
∴50x + 170 - 10x =450
⇒40x + 170 =450
⇒40x =450-170
⇒40x =280
⇒x =280/40
⇒x =7
∴number of 50paise coins =x =7
∴number of 10paise coins =17 - x =17 - 7 =10
