\r\n" );
document.write( "Let \"d\" be the number of dimes.\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the number of quarters is (23-d).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The \"value\" equation is \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "10d + 25*(23-d) = 500 cents.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "10d + 575 - 25d = 500,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "10d - 25d = 500 - 575,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "-15d = -75,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "d =  = 5.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Answer.  5 dimes ans 23-5 = 18 quarters.\r\n" );
