Solution

The correct option is C 7
Let, 50 paise coins = 2x and Re. 1 coins = x
Their value is Rs. 26, then the number of Re. 1 coins will be 13 and the number of 50 paise coins will be 26.
Remaining amount = 50 - 26 = 24.
Now if Rs. 5 coins are x in number then Rs. 2 coins will be x + 5.
Then, with the help of trial method, Rs. 2 coins will be x + 5 = 2 + 5 = 7 in number.
