I'd say you can't. If all the coins are the smallest possible without pennies, they must all be nickels, and 21 of them make $1.05 . So in order for 21 coins to be not more than $1.00, there must be some pennies.
To determine how many 10-cent coins are in $1.50, you would divide $1.50 by 0.10 (since there are 10 cents in a dime). This calculation would result in 15, indicating that there are 15 ten-cent coins in $1.50.
