    C 71 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the number of ₹1, ₹5, and ₹10 coins be 3x, 5x, and 7x respectively.
    Total amount = 1×3x + 5×5x + 10×7x = 3x + 25x + 70x = 98x
    Given total amount = ₹980
    So, 98x = 980 → x = 10
    Number of ₹10 coins = 7x = 7×10 = 70
