We will get the number of possible selections, and then subtract the number less than 25 cents.
We can choose the number of dimes 5 ways 0,1,2,3 or 4. We can choose the number of nickels 4 ways 0,1,2 or 3. We can choose the number of quarters 3 ways 0,1, or 2.
That's 5*4*3 = 60 selections
Now we must subtract from the 60 the number of selections of coins that are less than 25 cents. These will involve only dimes and nickels.
To get a selection of coin worth less than 25 cents: If we use no dimes, we can use 0,1,2 on all 3 nickels. That's 4 selections less than 25 cents. (that includes the choice of No coins at all in the 60, which we must subtract).
If we use exactly 1 dime , we can use 0,1,2, or all 3 nickels. That's the 3 combinations less than 25 cents.
And there is 1 other selection less than 25 cents, 2 dimes and no nickels.
So that's 4+3+1 = 8 selections which we must subtract from the 60.
Answer 60-8 = 52 selections of coins worth 25 cents or more.
21.2264 is 21.2 rounded to the nearest tenths; the place after the decimal is there tenths place so in the hundreths place, the number 2 is less than 5 therefore rounding it to 2.
