This math topic focuses on solving algebraic problems involving U.S. coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters). Students must determine the number of specific coin types based on their total value and given equality or inequality relations among the counts of different coins. Problems are presented with multiple-choice answers and involve basic arithmetic and introductory algebraic concepts. This helps in practicing coin identification, counting, and basic algebra skills.
