Answer 1

82.5 i think. Good luck

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Total number of coins he collected = 250 coins
• Percentage of coins he collected which were foreign = 76 %

So,

→ Number of coins he collected which were foreign = 76% of 250

→ Number of coins he collected which were foreign =
`(76)/(100)` × 250

→ Number of coins he collected which were foreign =
`(76)/(10)` × 25

→ Number of coins he collected which were foreign =
`(1900)/(10)`

→ Number of coins he collected which were foreign = 190

Now,

→ Other coins he collected = Total coins - Number of coins he collected which were foreign

→ Other coins he collected = 250 - 190

→ Other coins he collected = 60

Therefore, he collected 60 other coins.
