Correct Answer: INR 3,360


Solution : Let, the number of INR 5, INR 10, and INR 20 denominations in the bag be 2x, 3x, and 5x.
Given that the total number of coins is 240.
So, 2x + 3x + 5x = 240
$\therefore$ x = 24
So the number of coins of INR 5, INR 10, and INR 20 denominations are 48, 72, and 120.
The total amount will be given by:
= 48 × 5 + 72 × 10 + 120 × 20
= 240 + 720 + 2400
= INR 3,360
Hence, the correct answer is INR 3,360.
