. Rahul has 260 coins of Rs. 1, Rs.2 and Rs.5 altogether. The total value of the money is Rs.309. The number of Rs.2 coins is three times the number of Rs.5 coins. Find the number of coins of each type.

Respuesta :

coin of 5 = 20 coins

coin of 2 = 60 coins

coin of 1 = 80 coins


let the number of coin 5 = Rs.x

so the number of coin 2 = 3x

the number of coin 1 = 160 - 4x

so the amount of rs.5 = 5x

the amount of rs.2 = 6x

a/q

5x + 6x + 160 - 4x = 300

7x = 300 - 160

7x = 140

x = 20
