Question 510842: Using the least number of the coins (quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies) show how to make $2.49. I put for my answer 8 quarters, 4 dimes, 1 nickel and 4 pennies. Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! How about:
9 quarters = $2.25
2 dimes ...= $0.20
4 pennies..= $0.04
------------------
15 coins...= $2.49
-----------------=
But if you have to include at least one of each type of coin, then:
9 quarters = $2.25
1 dime.....= $0.10
2 nickels..= $0.10
4 pennies..= $0.04
------------------
16 coins...= $2.49
