Answer: $1105



SOLUTION 1 :
Step 1: 20-cent coins → 75%  
  50-cent coins → 100%  
  Difference → 100% - 75%  
    = 25%  
Step 2: 25% → 425 (difference)
  1% 42525%  
  75% 42525% x 75%1 (number of 20-cent coins)
    = 1275  
  100% 42525% x 100%1 (number of 50-cent coins)
    = 1700  
Step 3: Amount of money in the bag → (1275 x $0.20) + (1700 x $0.50)  
    = $1105
