\n" ); document.write( "d + p = 99 coins and the values equation is
\n" ); document.write( "10d + p = 450 (we work in cents)
\n" ); document.write( "Now subtract these equations and get
\n" ); document.write( "-9d = -351
\n" ); document.write( "d = 39 dimes
\n" ); document.write( "p = 60 pennies
\n" ); document.write( "
