    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    - Hridaya has a mix of Rs1, Rs2, Rs5, and Rs10 coins in her piggy bank.

    - The ratio of the coins is 10:5:2:1.

    - Total number of coins is 72.

    To find out the number of each type of coin:

    - Total ratio parts = 10 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 18

    - Each part represents \(72/18 = 4\) coins.

    Calculating each type:

    - Rs1 coins = \(10 \times 4 = 40\)

    - Rs2 coins = \(5 \times 4 = 20\)

    - Rs5 coins = \(2 \times 4 = 8\)

    - Rs10 coins = \(1 \times 4 = 4\)

    Now calculating the total money:

    - Total money = \(40 \times 1 + 20 \times 2 + 8 \times 5 + 4 \times 10\)

    - = Rs40 + Rs40 + Rs40 + Rs40 = Rs160

    Correct Answer: Option 3 - 160
