Question

Ann has $ 1, $10, and $20 bills. She has 4 times as many $20 bills as $10 bills. She has 3 times as many $1 bills as $20 bills. She has a total of $204 . Drag and drop the number of $1, $10, and $ 20 bills she has.

Answer 1

Ann has 24 $1 bills, 2 $10 bills, and 8 $20 bills.

Explanation:

Given that Ann has $1, $10, and $20 bills, and she has 4 times as many $20 bills as $10 bills and 3 times as many $1 bills as $20 bills, taking a total of $204, to determine the number of $1, $10, and $20 bills she has, she needs to perform the following calculation:

1 = 3x20 = 3x4x10 = 12x10

20 = 4x10

10 = 10

(12 x 1) + (4 x 20) + 10 = 12 + 80 + 10 = 102

(24 x 1) + (8 x 20) + (2 x 10) = 24 + 160 + 20 = 204

So Ann has 24 $1 bills, 2 $10 bills, and 8 $20 bills.
