1) his money contains 4 types so he has atleast one type of each type of paise coin. Hence there are 2 ways of distribution
i)10,1,1,1
ii)5,2,1,1 of 1p,5p,10p,25p respectively
in both cases only one 25p coin will be with one children because 50 paise cannot be divided equally other wise.
so answer is 2. one children has 1 - 25 paise , other child has all the other coins .

2)same method for 2 . answer might be 1 children.

@ ankit your answer is wrong bcz if the beggar has 49 children then he should have 50 one paisa coins so as to distribute it equally to every child. Moreover, if that is the case, answer violates the condition which mentioned answer which states that " each child should unique combination of paise". And please sir if i'm wrong.
