Let f and t represent the numbers of 5- and 10-cent coins in the purse. (We expect these numbers to be positive integers.)
.. 5f +10t = 105 . . . . . . current value
.. 10f +5t = 215 . . . . . . value if numbers are swapped

Multiply the first equation by -2 and add to the second.
.. -2(5f +10t) +(10f +5t) = -2(105) +215
.. -15t = 5
.. t = -1/3

No such coin arrangement is possible.

If you simply add the two original equations, you get
.. 15(t + f) = 320
.. t + f = 21 1/3 . . . . . There are 21 1/3 coins in the purse.

Taking that at face value, we find the average coin value is
.. 1.05/21.3333... = 4.921875¢ . . . . less than the value of a nickel

There is no combination of nickels and dimes that will make the average value of a single coin be less than 5¢. (The average value must be between 5¢ and 10¢.)

step-by-step explanation:

so first find out how much each is worth.

quarter= 25 cents

dime= 10 cents

pennies= 1 cent

then multiply each by how much each is worth.

200 150 300

x x x 1

25 10

300

1000 1500

4000

5000

then count 2 from the back and add a period.

$50.00

$15.00

$3.00

and then add them

$50.00

$15.00

$3.00

$68.00

so sunghee has $68.00
