There are 4 standard U. S. coins. If a person has one of each. How many different amounts of money can the person give someone using 3 coins?

(e. g. 1¢ + 5¢ + 25¢ =31¢ OR 5¢ + 10¢ + 25¢ =40¢ )

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
