Phil had 2 quarters, 1 dime and 3 pennies = 63 cents
Paul had 2 nickles = 10 cents
Total 63 + 10 = 73 cents
If Paul had 1 cent more than Phil, then Paul would have 37 cents and Phil would have 36 cents
but Paul had 10 cents
10 cents + 27 cents = 37 cents
so
1 quarter and 2 pennies Phil gave to Paul, total 27 cents
Answer
Phi gave Paul 1 quarter and 2 pennies.
