The values in question are:

  • Rs 150 paisa = Rs 1.50

  • Rs 25 paisa = Rs 0.25

Given the ratio of the number of each coin type is 8:9:11, we can set:

  • Let the number of Rs 150 paisa coins be 8x

  • Let the number of Rs 100 paisa coins (not specified in the question but implied in the ratio) be 9x

  • Let the number of Rs 25 paisa coins be 11x

Next, we can calculate the total value contributed by each type of coin based on their quantities and values:

  • The value from Rs 150 paisa coins is 8x * 1.50 = 12x
