No 1 2,3,4, or 5 of those coins add up to the same value
as any other 1,2,3,4, or 5, so every combination of coins
gives a different value.
There are two choices we can make for each coin.
They are:
1. Use it to form a value.
2. Do not use it to form a value.
There are 2 choices to make for the 5 cent coin. (Use it or don't).
There are 2 choices to make for the 10 cent coin.
There are 2 choices to make for the 20 cent coin.
There are 2 choices to make for the 50 cent coin.
Therefore there are 2×2×2×2 = 24 = 16 different values.
However that includes the value 0, in which case we do not use any
coins. So we exclude the value 0 from the 16:
Answer = 15 values (not counting 0 cents).
These values are every multiple of 5 cents from 5 cents through 85
cents, EXCEPT there is no way to have 40 cents or 45 cents.
