Answer 1

Answer:

25 paise = 68 coins

50 paise = 34 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

total amount sumitra has Rs. 34

number of 25 paise coins are twice of 50 paise coins

let number of 25 paise be x

number of 50 paise be y

0.25x + 0.50y = 34

x = 2y

0.25(2y) + 0.50y = 34

0.50y + 0.50y = 34

y = 34

x = 2y = 2×34 = 68

therefore

25 paise = x = 68 coins

50 paise = y = 34 coins

0.25(68) + 0.50(34)

17 + 17 = 34

hope you get your answer ,
