Coins of 5 paise, 10 paise, 20 paise and 25 paise have disappeared from our markets. Now, notes of 1 rupee, 2 rupees and 5 rupees re also fast disappearing.


Making amounts with coins:

Now with the coins we find the amount of money.

If there is a 50-paise coin, a 25-paise coin, a 20-paise coin and a 10-paise coin, then what is the total amount?

50 paise + 25 paise + 20 paise + 10 paise = 105 paise = 1 rupee 5 paise


We know two, fifty-paise coins have the value of one rupee.

i.e., 2 × 50 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

4 × 25 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

5 × 20 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

10 × 10 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

20 × 5 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

25 × 4 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee

50 × 2 paise = 100 paise = 1 rupee


Knowing the value of different coins, we calculate the value of the total amount.
