Detailed Solution & Explanation

Total number of coins in the bag is $105\displaystyle .<br>The ratio of 50 paise coins to 25 paise coins is &#36;4 : 3.
Number of 50 paise coins =105×44+3=105×47=60\displaystyle = 105 ×\displaystyle \times 44+3=105\displaystyle \frac{4}{4+3} = 105 ×\displaystyle \times 47=60\displaystyle \frac{4}{7} = 60
Number of 25 paise coins =105×37=45\displaystyle = 105 ×\displaystyle \times 37=45\displaystyle \frac{3}{7} = 45
The monetary value of these coins is:
- Value of 50 paise coins =60×₹0.50=₹30\displaystyle = 60 ×\displaystyle \times ₹0.50 = ₹30
- Value of 25 paise coins =45×₹0.25=₹11.25\displaystyle = 45 ×\displaystyle \times ₹0.25 = ₹11.25
Total Value=₹30+₹11.25=₹41.25Total Value\displaystyle \text{Total Value} = ₹30 + ₹11.25 = ₹41.25
