Answer:

The bag contains $5.14

Step-by-step explanation:

18% of 50 = (.18)(50) = 9 pennies

40% of 50 = (.40)(50) = 20 dimes

2 more nickels than pennies = 9 + 2 = 11 nickels

40 coins so far, so 50 - 40 = 10 quarters

Total value:

9 x ($0.01) = $0.09  for pennies

20 x ($0.10) = $2.00 for dimes

11 x ($0.05) = $0.55 for nickels

10 x ($0.25) = $2.50 for quarters

Grand total value = $5.14
