A kiddy bank of a child contains all Rs. 1, 50 paise and 25 paise coins. What is the total amount in the bank ?
(1) Total number of coins are 20
(2) The number of 50 paise and 25 paise coins are in the ratio of 7:3.

A) only 1 is needed B) only 1 is needed
C) Both and 2 are needed D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both and 2 are needed

Explanation:

Given that 50 paise and 25 paise coins are in the ratio of 7:3, they can be either 7 & 3 or 14 & 6.
As total 20 coins also includes Rs. 1 coins, so 50 paise & 25 paise coins are 7 & 3 respectively & Rs. 1 coins are 10.
Total amount = (100x10) + (50x7) + (25x3)=1425 paise or Rs.14.25.
