Divide 123 rupee among A and B so that B will get as many 25 paise coins as 50 paise coins A gets.

• let number of coins having A as well as B be x
  
  A's money = 0.50 x
  
  B's money = Rs 0.25 x
  
  => 0.50 x + 0.25 x = 123
  => x = 123/0.75 = 164
  
  A's money = 0.50 × 164 = Rs 82
  B's money = 0.25 × 164 = Rs 41

• Let the number of coins with both be x
  Then money with A = x × 50 paise = Rs 0.50 x
  and money with B = x × 25 paise = Rs 0.25 x
  Now A and B have Rs 123 in total
  0.50 x + 0.25 x = 123
  0.75 x = 123
  X = 123/0.75=164
  Hence money with A = Rs 0.50 × 164 = Rs 82
  And money with B = Rs 0.25 × 164 = Rs 41
