The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the number of coins of each kind (रु 1, रु 2, and रु 5) based on the given ratio and total amount. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Ratio The ratio of the number of coins of रु 1, रु 2, and रु 5 is given as 4:1:2. This means: - Let the number of रु 1 coins be 4x - Let the number of रु 2 coins be 1x - Let the number of रु 5 coins be 2x ### Step 2: Calculate the Total Value of Coins Next, we calculate the total monetary value contributed by each type of coin: - The value of रु 1 coins = Number of coins × Value per coin = 4x × 1 = 4x - The value of रु 2 coins = Number of coins × Value per coin = 1x × 2 = 2x - The value of रु 5 coins = Number of coins × Value per coin = 2x × 5 = 10x ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation Now, we add up the total values of all the coins and set it equal to the total amount given (रु 320): \[ 4x + 2x + 10x = 320 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Equation Combine like terms: \[ (4x + 2x + 10x) = 16x \] So, we have: \[ 16x = 320 \] ### Step 5: Solve for x To find the value of x, divide both sides by 16: \[ x = \frac{320}{16} = 20 \] ### Step 6: Find the Number of Coins Now that we have the value of x, we can find the number of coins of each type: - Number of रु 1 coins = 4x = 4 × 20 = 80 - Number of रु 2 coins = 1x = 1 × 20 = 20 - Number of रु 5 coins = 2x = 2 × 20 = 40 ### Final Answer - Number of रु 1 coins = 80 - Number of रु 2 coins = 20 - Number of रु 5 coins = 40
