    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the number of 50 paise coins be \[x\]. \[\Rightarrow 25\] paise coins \[=\text{ }5x\] Given that total coins = 120 \[\Rightarrow x+5x=120\] \[\Rightarrow 6x=120\] \[\Rightarrow x=\frac{120}{6}=20\] \[\therefore 50\]paise coins \[=20\] \[\Rightarrow \]Amount\[=\text{ }20\times 50\text{ p}=\] Rs. 10 Value of 25 paise coins \[\text{= 25p  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{  5  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{  20}\] \[\text{= 25p  }\!\!\times\!\!\text{  100 =}\]Rs. 25 Total amount Rs.
