A bag contains 50 paisa, 25 paisa and 10 paisa coins in the ratio of 7 : 8 : 3. If the total amount in the bag is Rs. 87, then find the number of 10 paise coins.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
50 P. 25 P. 10 P.
No. of Coins ⇒ 7 : 8 : 3
Value ⇒ 3.5 : 2 : .3 ⇒ 5.8R
5.8R = 87 (given)
1R = 15
No. of 10 P. coins = 3R = 3 × 15 = 45
