Think about the number of quarters as Q
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore the number of dimes is 2Q
\n" ); document.write( "Number of nickels is Q+5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now we convert everything to pennies\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Q*25 + 2Q(10)+ (Q+5)5 = 375
\n" ); document.write( "50Q + 25 = 375
\n" ); document.write( "50Q = 375
\n" ); document.write( "Q = 7. This means we have 7 quarters which is equivalent to 175 cents
\n" ); document.write( "Number of dimes = 2*Q = 14 = 140 cents
\n" ); document.write( "Number of Nickels Q+5 = 12 = 60 cents
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
