Makayla had $1.19 in change. None of the coins was a dollar. Nicole ask her for change for a dol..

Answer / guest

As it is given that Makayla had $1.19, it means she would
have four pennies. Now, the remaining $1.15 in coins must
not add up for exactly a dollar. Therefore she would not
have 4 quarters or 2 quarters and 5 dimes. But she would
have either 1 quarter or 3 quarters. Hence, there are 2
solutions.

Solution I

1 Quarter, 9 Dimes, 4 Pennies (0.25 + 0.90 + 0.04 = $1.19)

Solution II

3 Quarters, 4 Dimes, 4 Pennies (0.75 + 0.40 + 0.04 = $1.19)
