There are 160 coins in a piggy bank of which 50% are quarters. What is the least possible amount of money that could be in the piggy bank?
------------
If it's US money:
80 quarters = $20
80 pennies = $0.80
--> $20.80
-----------------
If the 80 coins other than quarters are centavos or piasters, or something else, you must specify.
