Juan goes to a bank and gets change for a $50 bill consisting of all $5 bills and $1bills. There are 22 bills in all. How many of each kind are there?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "f = $5 bills
\n" ); document.write( "n = $1 bills
\n" ); document.write( "f+n = 22 (22 bills total)
\n" ); document.write( "5f + n = 50 (each f is $5, each n is $1, and they add up to $50)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "We have 2 eqns in 2 unknowns.
\n" ); document.write( "Forget the money, the bills, the bank, it's a math problem now.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "5f + n = 50
\n" ); document.write( "f + n = 22 Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 1
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "4f = 28
\n" ); document.write( "f = 7
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "n = 15
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
