DAY 62
You have $4.40 made up of the same number of nickels, dimes, and quarters. How many of each coin do you have?

Answer:

Eleven of each.............You can solve this using trial and error, but a more interesting appoach is to realize that one nickel, one dime, and one quarter add up to $.40. Since you have the same number of each type of coin, simply divide 4o into 440.
