Question 896067: A stack of $5 and $20 bills was counted by the treasurer of an organization. The total value of the money was $1170 and there were 47 more $5 bills than $20 bills. Find the number of each type of bills. Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5f+20t=1170,
f=t+47
not possible
perhaps you mean 1160
f=84 t=37 1160
420+740=1160
It is not possible for the total amt to end in 70.
