Problem 1: Anna’s mom gave her 2 quarters, 4 nickels, and 1 penny.

- 1 quarter = 25 cents → 2 quarters = 25 + 25 = 50 cents
- 1 nickel = 5 cents → 4 nickels = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 cents
- 1 penny = 1 cent

Total = 50 + 20 + 1 = 71 cents

Problem 2: Meredith earned 4 quarters, 2 dimes, 2 nickels, and 5 pennies.

- 4 quarters = 25 × 4 = 100 cents (that’s $1.00)
- 2 dimes = 10 × 2 = 20 cents
- 2 nickels = 5 × 2 = 10 cents
- 5 pennies = 5 cents

Total = 100 + 20 + 10 + 5 = 135 cents → that’s $1.35

Problem 3: Mario won 1 dollar, 1 half-dollar, 3 dimes, and 5 nickels.

- 1 dollar = $1.00
