Question
A bag contains 10-paisa, 20-paisa and 50-paisa coins in
the ratio of 8:6:7, respectively. If the total amount in the bag is Rs. 44, then find 25% of the number of 20-paisa coins in the bag.Solution
Let number of 10 paisa, 20 paisa and 50 paisa coins be β8xβ, β6xβ and β7xβ, respectively. ATQ, (0.1 Γ 8x) + (0.2 Γ 6x) + (0.5 Γ 7x) = 44 Or, 0.8x + 1.2x + 3.5x = 44 Or, 5.5x = 44 So, x = 8 So, number of 20 paisa coins = 6x = 48 Therefore, required number of coins = 0.25 Γ 48 = 12
