The answer is a number N of the form N = 4k1 + 2 = 5k2 + 1 where k1 and k2 are integers. The first few numbers that fit N = 4k1 + 2 are 2,6,10,14,18,22,26,30,34,38,42,46 By inspection we can see that the smallest solution for N is 26. Adding 20 gives another solution - 46 - which works because 20 is the lowest common multiple of 4 and 5. Any multiple of twenty, plus six, will be a solution.

How many dimes is in 2.31 if there are twice as many dimes as pennies?

The X.X1 at the end of the number implies that there could be 1, 11, 21, 31, etc. pennies. Now, we could go through and test the instances. .01 means that there is 1 penny. Therefore, there are 2 dimes to make .31, which does not work. .11 means that there are 11 pennies. Therefore, 22 dimes are required, which make $2.31. This works, so there are 22 dimes.
