Let the number of 10 paise coins be c.
∴ number of 25 paise coins = 90 – c
Given in question,
Coins amount to a total sum of Rs 18.45 = 1845 paise
⇒ 10 × c + (90 – c) × 25 = 1845
⇒ 10c + 2250 – 25c = 1845
⇒ 405 = 15c
⇒ c = 27
∴ number of 25 paise coins = 90 – 27 = 63
Ratio of number of 10 paise coins to 25 paise coins = 27 : 63 = 3 : 7
∴ number of 25 paise coins = 90 – c
