Homeschool Math Challenge February 7


Giving Hongbao (Red packets or Red envelopes) during Chinese New Year is a tradition. A Red packet is simply a red envelope with money in it which symbolizes luck and wealth. Red packets are typically handed out to childen by their parents, grandparents, relatives, close neighbors and friends.
Chin's envelope has 26 coins in it (a mix of dollars and quarters). The coins add up to $17.00. How many of each coin does he have?
