number of twenty-cent coins --- x
number of fifty-cent coins ----- x+12
value of x+12 fifty-cent coins = 50(x+12)
value of x twenty-cent coins = 20x
50(x+12) - 20x = 2100
50x + 600 - 20x = 2100
30x = 1500
x = 50
<b>There are 50 twenty-cent coins
and 62 fifty cent coins</b>
check:
value of 62 fifty-cent coins = 31
value of 50 twenty-cent coins = 10
which is a difference of 21$
