To make a total of $50.25 using U.S. currency, you can use various combinations of bills and coins. Here are a few examples:
1. **Using bills only:**
- 2 twenty-dollar bills ($40)
- 1 ten-dollar bill ($10)
- 1 five-dollar bill ($5)
- This totals $55, which is too much.
2. **Using bills and coins:**
- 2 twenty-dollar bills ($40)
- 1 five-dollar bill ($5)
- 1 one-dollar bill ($1)
- 1 quarter ($0.25)
Total:
- Bills: 2 (twenties) + 1 (five) + 1 (one) = 4 bills
- Coins: 1 quarter = 1 coin.
Total of bills and coins = 4 bills + 1 coin = 5 items total.
If you intend to use only bills, it’s not possible because the smallest combination that comes close exceeds $50.25.
If you include coins, it takes 4 bills and 1 coin: a total of 5 items.
