\r\n" );
document.write( "Put aside that three extra $5 bills.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then you have an updated collection of equal number of $5 and $20 dollars bills, and this collection is worth  265 - 15 = 250 dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now you can group $5 and $20 dollar bills in sets containing one $5-dollar bill and one $20-dollar bill.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Each set is worth $25, and the number of sets is   = 10.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, the original collection contains  10  of $20-dollar bills and  10+3 = 13 of $5-dollar bills.     ANSWER\r\n" );
