Makayla had $1.19 in change. None of the coins was a dollar. Nicole ask her for change for a dol..

Answer / guest

As it is given that Makayla had $1.19, it means she would
have four pennies. Now, the remaining $1.15 in coins must
not add up for exactly a dollar. Therefore she would not
have 4 quarters or 2 quarters and 5 dimes. But she would
have either 1 quarter or 3 quarters. Hence, there are 2
solutions.

Solution I

1 Quarter, 9 Dimes, 4 Pennies (0.25 + 0.90 + 0.04 = $1.19)

Solution II

3 Quarters, 4 Dimes, 4 Pennies (0.75 + 0.40 + 0.04 = $1.19)

100 Gold Coins Five pirates have obtained 100 gold coins and have to divide up the loot. The pirates are all extremely intelligent, treacherous and selfish (especially the captain). The captain always proposes a distribution of the loot. All pirates vote on the proposal, and if half the crew or more go "Aye", the loot is divided as proposed, as no pirate would be willing to take on the captain without superior force on their side. If the captain fails to obtain support of at least half his crew (which includes himself), he faces a mutiny, and all pirates will turn against him and make him walk the plank. The pirates start over again with the next senior pirate as captain. What is the maximum number of coins the captain can keep without risking his life?
