let number of coins having A as well as B be x

A's money = 0.50 x

B's money = Rs 0.25 x

=> 0.50 x + 0.25 x = 123
=> x = 123/0.75 = 164

A's money = 0.50 × 164 = Rs 82
B's money = 0.25 × 164 = Rs 41

Let the number of coins with both be x
Then money with A = x × 50 paise = Rs 0.50 x
and money with B = x × 25 paise = Rs 0.25 x
Now A and B have Rs 123 in total
0.50 x + 0.25 x = 123
0.75 x = 123
X = 123/0.75=164
Hence money with A = Rs 0.50 × 164 = Rs 82
And money with B = Rs 0.25 × 164 = Rs 41
