p = the # of pennies. Determine expressions for the numbers of nickles, dimes and quarters, in terms of p, based on the information stated about each type of coin. Then, multiply your nickel expression by 5, your dime expression by 10 and your quarter expression by 25. Finally, add these all together. If you want your answer in dollars and cents, divide by 100.
