Each person receives 1.00 dollar. You cannot use the 5 dollar note and cannot use the 2 dollar note. Obviously, they each are too big compared to the quantity of money that each person would receive. How do we divide it? 100/100 for dollars to people, which is 1 dollar per person.

The only denomination which will work is the 0.25 value note. FOUR of them per person.
