Answer 2

$\bf{\underline{\underline \green{Solution:-}}}$

$\mathsf {50 paise = 0.5 Rs}$

$\mathsf {25 paise = 0.25 Rs}$

$\textbf {Let the common multiple be x.}$

$\underline\mathtt \orange{Therefore,}$

• Number of 1 Rs , 50 paise and 25 paise coins are 4x , 5x and 6x respectively.

$\underline\mathtt \orange {According\:to \:the\: given \:condition,}$

$\mathsf {4x + 5x + 6x = 120}$

$\longrightarrow \sf {15x = 120}$

$\longrightarrow \sf {x = 8}$

$\underline\mathtt \orange{Thus:}$

$\mathsf {The\: number\: of \:25 \:paise \:coins = 6x}$

$\longrightarrow \sf {6 \times 8}$

$\longrightarrow \sf {48 \:Coins}$
