Thursday's Board Puzzle

In my money box I found $36.80 made up of equal numbers of quarters, dimes and nickels. How many of each coin did I find?

.25x + .10x + .05x = 36.80
.40x = 36.80
x = 92

92 quarters $23.00
92 dimes 9.20
92 nickels 4.60

You are going to have to present tougher problems than this one. MK
