p for pennies
\n" ); document.write( "n for nickels
\n" ); document.write( "d for dimes
\n" ); document.write( "c for quarters (because lower Q looks like a 'nine')\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c=13, and n=5.
\n" ); document.write( "p=2d for \"twice as many pennies as dimes\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Account for the money in the jar:
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%280.01p%2B0.05n%2B0.10d%2B0.25c=4.58%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0.01%2A2d%2B0.05%2A5%2B0.1%2Ad%2B0.25%2A13=4.58\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0.01%2A2d%2B0.1%2Ad=4.58-0.05%2A5-0.25%2A13\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%280.02%2B0.1%29d=4.58-.25-3.25\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"0.12d=4.58-3.50=1.08\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"d=1.08%2F0.12\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28d=9%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "and you can use it to find the number of pennies.
