Question 270059: Type in only your numerical answer to the following problem; do not type any words or letters with your answer. You find 12 coins in an old desk drawer, consisting entirely of nickels, dimes, and quarters, with a face value of $1.55. However, the coins all date from 1889 and are worth much more than their face value. You were able to sell all the coins to a coin shop for a total of $65. Suppose you received $5 for each nickel, $4 for each dime, and $7 for each quarter. How many of the coins were quarters?
