Question 717632: if you have two different coins for a total of 49 coins, and one type of coin has 13 more than the other how do you go about solving the problem? Answer by josgarithmetic(39621) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You do not have enough information to solve a problem UNLESS you are only dealing with count of coins. If this is just counting coins then you seem to be describing:
x+y=49 and y=x+13. Those would be a system of equations.
