    1125 coins

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To predict the number of coins with problem, we assume that for each 400 of the 150000 coins, we have 3 with misprint.

    So, using rule of three, if 400 coins have 3 coins with problems, 150000 coins have X coins with problem:

    400 - > 3

    150000 - > X

    400/150000 = 3/X

    X = 150000*3/400 = 1125

    We predict that 1125 coins will have a misprint.
