The number of 50 paise coins that we have in the bag with the respective other coins is; 48 coins

How to solve currency conversions?

Since the respective coins are in ratio of 1:2:4. Then, we can deduce the following;

Let number of 2 rupees coins in the bag = 1x

Let number of 1 rupees coins in the bag = 2x

Let number of 50 paise coins in the bag = 4x

Total amount of money = 72 rupees. Thus;

(2 * 1x) + (1 * 2x) + (0.5 * 4x) = 72

2x + 2x + 2x = 72

6x = 72

x = 72/6

x = 12

Thus, number of 50 paise coins = 4x = 4 * 12 = 48 coins
