The number of five rupee coins is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The ratio of the no. Of five rupee coins to number of ten rupee coins is 8:15 . If the total value of five rupee coins is 360

To find:

The number of five rupee coins

Solution:

As we know that 5 rupee and 10-rupee coins are in the ratio 8:15. So,

Let the total 5-rupee in the bag will be 8x.

So, the total 10-rupee coin in the bag will be 15x.

Total value of :-

Rs.5 coins = 8X * 5 = 40x

Rs.10 coins = 15X * 10 = 150x

Given, total value of all coins =360

Therefore,

40x+150x=360

90x=360

x=360/90=4

The number of five rupee coins is 32
