Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
5N+10D+25Q = 1045
D=77+N
Q=22N
Zero Nickels
77 Dimes
11 Quarters
5(0) + 10(77) + 25(11) = 1045
but then Q doesn't = 22 times 0
There's a mistake in the problem somewhere
as written the only solution is about slightly less than 1/2 a Nickel, about 0.486726 Nickels
Dimes = about 77.486726
and Quarters = about 22 times .486726 = 10.708
round them off to nearest integer gives N=0, D=77, Q=11
