5 quarters is too much
4 quarters is too much
2 quarters is too much
1 quarter + 4 dimes is too much
1 quarter + 3 dimes is too much
1 quarter + 2 dimes = 45 cents- too close
1 quarter + 1 dime = 35 cents
1 quarter + 1 dime + 1 nickel = 40 cents
1 quarter + 1 dime + 2 nickels = 45 cents
1 quarter + 1 dime + 2 nickels + 1 penny = 46 cents
