In your piggy bank, you have $6.80, which is a combination of 39 coins(quarters and dimes only).
\n" ); document.write( " Is it possible to have 39 coins of quarters and dimes only?
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations::
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity of coins: d + q = 39 coins
\n" ); document.write( "Value of the coins 10d + 25q = 680 cents
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Modify::
\n" ); document.write( "10d + 10q = 10*39
\n" ); document.write( "10d + 25q = 680
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"q\":
\n" ); document.write( "15q = 290
\n" ); document.write( "q = 19 1/3 (not a realistic number of quarters)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: It is not possible.
