To find the number of bills \( b \) in Guy Granger's stack, we can use the information given about the distribution of the bills.
We know that there are 5 contestants and each contestant receives 4 one hundred-dollar bills. The total number of bills distributed can be calculated by multiplying the number of contestants by the number of bills each contestant receives.
The equation can be set up as follows:
\[
b = 5 \times 4
\]
Now we can solve the equation:
\[
b = 20
\]
Hence, the number of bills in Guy Granger's stack is \( 20 \).
