\r\n" );
document.write( "Put 5 quarters aside for a minute.  Then the updated collection is worth 510 - 5*25 = 385 cents.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Next, group the rest of the collection in sets, containing 1 dime + 1 quarter each, totaling 10+25 = 35 cents.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The number of sets then is  = 11.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Answer.  There were 11 dimes and 11+5 = 16 quarters.\r\n" );
