Read Solution (Total 5)
-
- 25X+10(2X)+5(3X)=3000
60X=3000
X=50
5P=3X=50*3=150

- ratio is 1:2:3
so 25+15+20=60 ps.
60 ps =>3 (5p coins)
3000 ps => ?
(3000/60)*3=150 coins. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 1(25)+2(10)+3(5)=60p
in bag Rs 30 are there =60p*50
so to get Rs 30 we need 50 sets of 1:2:3 coins
50*1=25p coins are 50
50*2=10p coins are 100
50*3=5p coins are 150 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 25p 10p 5p
1/4p +1/5p +3/20p=30
12p=600
1p=50
3*50=150 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
