Question 656844: We have 12 coins that total $.68. What coins to we have?
Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 12 quarters is $3.00 -too much
12 dimes is $1.20 -too much
12 nickels is $.60 -not enough
There has to be 3 pennies and at least
1 nickel to get the $.08 at the end
-----------------------------
I'll try 7 nickels, 2 dimes, and 3 pennies = $.58
I'll try 5 nickels, 4 dimes, and 3 pennies = $.68
That works
