Bansi has 3 times as many two-rupee coins as he has five-rupee coins. If he has in all a sum of Rs 77, how many coins of each denomination does he have?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let Bansi has `x` five-rupee coins. Then he will have `3x` two-rupees coins.
We are given,
`5(x)+2(3x) = 77`
`5x+6x = 77`
`11x = 77=> x = 7` So Bansi has `7` five-rupees coins and `21` two rupees coins.
