In order to make 50p using only 2p coins, you would need 25 of them. This is because each 2p coin is worth 2 pence, so 25 coins would equal 50 pence. This calculation is based on the fact that 100 pence make up £1, so half of that amount would be 50 pence.

One 50p and two 2p coins equals 54p.
To determine the number of ways to make up 50p using 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, and 50p coins, you can use a combinatorial approach or dynamic programming. The problem can be solved by calculating the different combinations of these coins that sum to 50p. The total number of combinations is 341.

Oh, what a happy little question! You can make one pound using different combinations of coins. You can use 100 one-penny coins, or 50 two-penny coins, or 20 five-penny coins, or 10 ten-penny coins, or 5 twenty-penny coins, or 2 fifty-penny coins. Just mix and match those coins and let your creativity shine!
