Another $5 Prize

[Jimmy]

I would just like to point out that there are

10,077,696

Different possible combinations. Figuring it out will take a lot of luck .

There are actually 40353607 different possibilities.

$0.01, $0.05, $0.10, $0.20, $0.25, $0.50, $1.00

So, 7^9

OR (since I had trouble finding the exponent key on the windows calculator)
7^9 = n
log7(n) = 9
log(n)/log(7) = 9
log(n) = 9log(7)

10^(9log(7)) = n

20????

Also Jimmy, your logic is flawed. I want an amount. The amount can range from 9 cents to 9.00. so there are only 900-9= 791 different answers. However, many of these, like 10, that can not happen.

There are also number that can be gotten by different combinations of coins.

4.50 = 9 half dollars

4.50 = 4 dollars + 5 dimes.

4.50 = 3 dollars + 6 quarters
