∙ Financial literacy

Peter opened his piggy bank when it was filled
completely. He found many coins in it. He sorted

out the coins of different denominations as follows:
Sixty 1-rupee coins, Forty-eight 2-rupee coins,

Twenty-four 5-rupee coins and Seventy-two
10-rupee coins.

Represent this information through a table and calculate how much

money Peter had collected.

Now, Peter wants to spend his amount intelligently. So he plans to
spend half of the total on a First Aid Box for his school, one-fourth

on his stationery items and remaining for his pocket money. Can you
help him in this job?
