How do you make a dollar out of 53 coins?

Answer 1

You can figure this out by experimenting a bit. Obviously, to have that many coins, most of the coins must be pennies. Also, the number of pennies must be a multiple of 5, since all coins larger than pennies are multiples of 5. If you use 45 pennies and 8 nickels, you have the right amount of coins, but not enough money. The solution turns out to be 45 pennies, 4 nickels, and 4 dimes.

Answer 2

Well, honey, you can make a dollar out of 53 coins by using a combination of quarters, dimes, and pennies. You'll need 2 quarters, 3 dimes, and 8 pennies to add up to a dollar. Just don't go trying to pay for your groceries with that exact change, unless you want to annoy the cashier.

Answer 3

To make a dollar out of 53 coins, you would use a combination of quarters, dimes, and pennies. You could have 2 quarters (50 cents), 1 nickel (5 cents), and 3 pennies (3 cents) for a total of 53 coins equaling $1. Alternatively, you could have 4 quarters (100 cents), 2 dimes (20 cents), and 1 nickel (5 cents) for a total of 53 coins also equaling $1.
