Answer:

There are $6.33 in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Number of Pennies = 0.16*50 = 8
  • Number of Dimes = 0.3*50 = 15
  • Number of Nickels = 8+2 = 10
  • Number of Quarters = 50-(8+15+10) = 17

Thus, the total money in the bag = (8*$0.01)+(15*$0.1)+(10*$0.05)+(17*$0.25) = ($0.08)+($1.5)+($0.5)+($4.25) = $6.33
