P+D+Q=44
\n" ); document.write( "P=D THUS WE HAVE 2D+Q=44 OR Q=44-2D
\n" ); document.write( ".01D+.10D+.25Q=4.37 NOW REPLACE (44-2D) FOR Q
\n" ); document.write( ".01D+.10D+.25(44-2D)=4.37
\n" ); document.write( ".11D+11-.5D=4.37
\n" ); document.write( "-.39D=4.37-11
\n" ); document.write( "-.39D=6.63
\n" ); document.write( "D=-6.63/-.39
\n" ); document.write( "D=17 ANSWER FOR THE NUMBER OF PENNIES & NUMBER OF DIMES.
\n" ); document.write( "17=17+Q=44
\n" ); document.write( "Q=44=34
\n" ); document.write( "Q=10
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
\n" ); document.write( ".01*17+.1*17+.25*10=4.37
\n" ); document.write( ".17+1.70+2.50=4.37
\n" ); document.write( "4.37=4.37
\n" ); document.write( "
