I opened two piggy banks. The
first piggy bank had 3 quarters, 1 dime, 1 nickel, and 14 pennies. The
other piggy bank had 1 quarter, 5 dimes, 3 nickels, and 18 pennies. How much
money did I have altogether?

For 4th and 5th graders:
The first piggy bank had twice as many dimes as nickels and three times as
many pennies as dimes. It also had 12 dimes and 22 quarters. The
second piggy bank had the 9 more quarters than nickels and half as many dimes
as quarters. If it had 7 nickels and 3 pennies, how much money did
I have altogether?
