Answer:

6 one rupee and 12 two rupee coins.

Explanation:

If the number of rupee coins is x then the number of 2 rupee coins is 2x.

x + 2*2x = 30

5x = 30

x = 6.

Let number of one rupee coins be x
Let number of two rupee coins be 2x

=> 2x+x=30
=>3x=30
=> x = 10

Hence , number of one rupee coints are x = 10

Number of 2 rupee coins are 2x = 2(10) = 20

Hope this helps you dear:)
Have a good day!
