Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
1 quarter = $.25
3 dimes = .30
1 half dollar = .50
----------------------
$1.05
Cannot change a nickel for you have no pennies
Cannot change a dime, for you have no nickels or pennies
Cannot change a quarter with only dimes.
Cannot change a half dollar, for you have only one quarter,
and dimes cannot make up the remaining 25 cents
Cannot change a dollar, for no combination gives that.
