The ratio of Rs.1, 50 paise and 25 paise coins is: 5:6:8

Number of Rs.1 coins is: 5x

Number of 50 paise coins is: 6x

Number of 25 paise coins is: 8x

Value of 5xRs.1 coins is: Rs.1 • 5x = Rs.5x.

Value of 6x 50 paise coins is: 6x•50 paise is:

Rs. 6x × 50 = Rs.3x

100

Vaue of 8x 25 paise coins= 8x•25 paise is:

Rs. 8×25 = Rs.2x

100

Total Amount = Rs.420

5x+3x+2x=420

10x = 420 x= 420 = 42

10

# of Rs coins: 5×42=210

# of 50 paise coins: 6×42=252

# of 25 paise coins: 8×42=336

Total number of coins 210+252+336=798
