A bank teller is counting $20 and $50 dollar bills. If ther ae six times as many $20 bills as $50 bills and the total amount of money is $3910 find the number of each denomination
-------
Equations:
Quantity Equation: t = 6f bills
Value EQuation:::20t + 50f = 3910 dollars
-------------------------
Substitute for "t" and solve for "f":
20*6f + 50f = 3910
120f + 50f = 3910
170f = 3910
f = 23 (# of $50 bills)
Solve for "t":
t = 6f
t = 6*23 = 188 (# of $20 bills)
