If a collection of coins contains 15% pennies, 20% nickels, and 10% dimes,
\n" ); document.write( " how many of each kind of coin does the collection have if it has a total of 200 coins?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "All the coins have to be 100%, therefore
\n" ); document.write( "100 - 15 - 20 - 10 = 55% must be quarters
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ".15(200) = 30 pennies
\n" ); document.write( ".20(200) = 40 nickels
\n" ); document.write( ".10(200) = 20 dimes
\n" ); document.write( ".55(200) = 110 quarters
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "total coins: 200
