The shopkeeper does not have more than 1 coin of-50p,25p,5p and not more than 4 coins of 10p.
If he have more than 1 of these coins,he can easily can give change of
1r=(2x50p),50p=(2x25p),10p=(2x5p)and 50p=(5X10p)

So the only solution-(1X50p)=50
(4x10p)=40
(1x25p)=25

50p----1
10p---5
5p---1
so that he can give change for 25 i.e

2x10p + 1x5p = 25;

1x10p + 1x5p = 15;

5x10p=50 p ;

1x 50 p +5x1op + 1x5p = 1.15
