X had 60 coins, out of which ½ were Indian coins and 1/6 were US coins. How many other coins did he have?
20
Given:
Total coins = 60
Indian coins = ½ of total
American coins = 1/6 of total
Calculation:
Indian coins = ½ × 60 = 30
American coins = 1/6 × 60 = 10
Indian coins + American coins = 40
Formula:
Remaining coins = Total coins - (Indian coins + American coins)
⇒ 60 - 40 = 20 coins
