    are kept in the ratio 18:7:5. If the total value of coins is Rs. 2516, determine how many 1-rupee coins are there.
    A 1520 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 2808 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1662 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1470 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Let number of coins = 18x, 7x, 5x

    Amount = (18x Γ— 0.10) + (7x Γ— 0.25) + (5x Γ— 1)

    β‡’ 1.8x + 1.75x + 5x = 2516

    β‡’ 8.55x = 2516

    β‡’ x = 294

    So, number of 1-rupee coins = 5x = 5 Γ— 294 = 1470
