A bill for Rs.74 was paid with Rs.5 and Re.1 coins. If total number of coins given is 50, then the number of Rs.5 coins is equal to

A) 5
B) 6
C) 8
D) 10

Correct Answer:


B) 6

Description for Correct answer:
Let number of Rs.5 coin be x and Re.1 coin be y.

\( \Large \therefore x+y = 50 \) ...(i)

\( \Large 5x+y = 74 \) ...(ii)

Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get x = 6

Hence, number of Rs.5 coins = 6.
