<span>Since the number of quarters, dimes, and nickels is going to be the same for each, we can assign x as the quantity of each coin and place it by its monetary value:
.25x + .10x + .05x = 4.00
This then simplifies to:
.40x = 4.00
4 divided by .4 gives x a value of 10, so there would be 10 quarters, 10 dimes, and 10 nickels.</span>
