Question

There are 60 coins in a bag. The ration of 2 rupees coins to 5 rupees coins is 5:7. The 12 coins were of 1 rupee. How much money is there in the bag?

Answer 1

Answer:

The total amount in the bag is Rs. 192.

Step-by-step explanation: Let us suppose the coins of 2 rupees and 5  rupees coins be 5x and 7x.

According to the question:-

5x + ×7x + 12 =60

12x = 60 - 12

7x = 48

x = 4

5x = 5 × 4 = 20

7x = 7 × 4 = 28

Now , Total no. of coins of each rupees = 20 + 28 + 12 = 60

Total amount of money in bag = ( 2 × 20 ) + ( 5 × 28 ) + ( 1 × 12 )

40 + 140 + 12 = 192
