Thanks for your help, been really apreciated Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There has to be a typo in the sentence "Marcos had 15 coins in nickels and quarters than nickels". I got the "15 coins in nickels and quarters" part, but the "quarters than nickels" part doesn't fit.
