keema cashed her paycheck and came home from the bank with 1460 in bills

twenties, ............x
fives,................8x
and hundreds. ...........x+5

20x+8x*5+100(x+5)=1460
20x+40x+100x+500=1460
160x= 1460-500
160x=960
x=6

twenties, ............x=6
fives,................8x=48
and hundreds. ...........x+5= 11
