Answer 1

Answer:

Both are 200 in number

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no of 50 paise coins be x and no. of 1 rupee coins be y.

1 rupee=100paise

300 rupee=30000 paise

Total amount of 50 paise coins=50x and of 1 rupee coins =100y

50x+100y=30000 ..........1

x=y ............2

Putting x=y in eq 1 we get

50x +100x= 30000

150x=30000 => x=200

Therefore x=y=200
