the total value of the coins of each kind be the same, the total amount in the bag is
-
- ₹ 75
- ₹ 175
- ₹ 300
- ₹ 126
Correct Option: A
Let the number of coins of 1- rupee coin be x.
Total value of the coins of each kind is same, then the number of 50 paisa coins = 2x and the number of 25 paisa coins = 4x.
According to the question.
x + 2x + 4x = 175
7x = 175
| ∴ x = | = 25 | |
| 7 |
∴ Total amount in bag
= 25 + 25 + 25 = ₹ 75
