Maurice has three 20 bills two 10 bills 10 quarters 12 nickels and 2 pennies. If he donates an equal amount of hop is money to 4 charities, how much will each charity receive?

Answer 1

Aloha!
First, add $20 and $20 and $20 and $20 because of the one $20 bill and the two ten dollar bills.

Add the 10 quarters which is 2.50 and add 12 nickles 60 cents or .60 then add 2 pennies.
The answer is $83.12 cents.
Now divide that by 4 which is 20.78
So to answer your question: 20.78 is how much each charity would get.
I hope this helps!:)

Answer 2

So if there are 3 $20, 2 $10, 10 $0.25, 12 $0.05 and $.02, it would add up to $83.12. If he splits this money evenly into 4 groups, it would be 83.12/4, which is 41.56/2, which simplifies to $20.78 per charity! :)
