Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Volume one coin :
$$\eqalign{ & = \left( {\frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{{75}}{{100}} \times \frac{{75}}{{100}} \times \frac{2}{{10}}} \right){\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^3} \cr & = \frac{{99}}{{280}}{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^3} \cr} $$
Volume of larger cylinder :
$$ = \left( {\frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{9}{4} \times \frac{9}{4} \times 10} \right){\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^3}$$
Number of coins :
$$\eqalign{ & = \left( {\frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{9}{4} \times \frac{9}{4} \times 10 \times \frac{{280}}{{99}}} \right) \cr & = 450 \cr} $$
