    In a bag, there are coins of 25 paise, 10 paise and 5 paise in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 3. If there are Rs. 30 in all, how many 5 paise coins are there?

    150

    C.

    100

    The ratio of 25 paise, 10 paise, and 5 paise coins = 1 : 2 : 3

    Total value of all coins = Rs. 30

    25x + 2x × 10 + 3x × 5 = 30 × 100

    X = 50

    Number of 5 paise coins are 3x = 150
