Question 404677
It takes time and practice to easily write a word problem into a set of equations...


Suppose the number of $10 bills, $5 bills, and $1 bills are denoted by a, b, c respectively. Since John has $446 in total, we can say that


446 = 10a + 5b + c


Also, there are 94 bills in all, so


94 = a + b + c


Since there are 10 more $5 bills than $10 bills,


b = c + 10


We wish to find the (numerical) value of c, in which I'll let you do, by using a system of equations and solving via substitution. Do you see where I got these equations from?
