. No. of Rs. 5 coins = x
. No. of Rs. 1 coins = 3x
. No. of Rs. 2 coins = 3x/2
=> No. of coins => x+3x+3x/2=66
=> (2x+6x+3x)/2=66
=> 11x/2=66
=> x=(66X2)/11
=12
=> Value of Rs. 5 coins=12x
=Rs. 5X 12
=Rs. 60
Step-by-step explanation:
NUMBER OF ₹ 5 COINS = x
NUMBER OF ₹ 1 COINS = 3x
NUMBER OF ₹ 5 COINS = 3x/2
ACCORDING TO QUESTION :
x+3x+3x/2=66
(2x+6x+3x)/2=66
11x/2=66
x=66×2/11
x=12
VALUE OF ₹ 5 COINS = 12 × 5 = 60
