0 Guest Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 How come the answer is 11..? I think the splitting must be this way.. Denomination Count Cost 1 1 1 2 2 4 5 1 5 10 2 20 20 2 40 50 0 0 100 1 100 200 2 400 500 1 500 1070 1070 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 A denomination wouldn't be an amount of money, it would be a specific bill, like $1, $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100, $1000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm confused...the way I read the question is this: There are $1070 total, how can you divide them into bags so that you can make any dollar amount from $1 to $1070 without having to open the bags. The solution naveed gave doesn't let you make any dollar amount from $71 to $99, for example. What am I misreading into the question?
