Download Solution PDFGiven: A box containing the denominations of five rupee coins, two rupee coins, and ten-rupee coins amount to Rs. 1972.
Let the number of coins be x
According to the question,
5x + 2x + 10x = 1972
17x = 1972
x = 1972 ÷ 17
x = 116
As, there are equal number of coins in all denominations so total number of 10 ten rupee coins in the box is ⇒ 116
