    Answer:

    32 coin in all

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step one:

    given data

    let the total coins be x

    we are given that 75% of x= 24

    Step two:

    Mathematically we have

    75/100*x= 24

    0.75x=24

    divide both sides by 0.75

    x=24/0.75

    x=32coins

    Hence the total coins is 32
