Suppose there is a pile of quarters, dimes and pennies with a total value of $1.07. how much of each coin can be present without being able to make change for a dollar?

Hello,

In the triplet below (x,y,z) x is the number of quaters,
y the number of dimes,
z the number of pennies

Answer is : ( 1, 8, 2),( 3, 3, 2)

I107=( 0, 0, 107) but : 100= 0*25+ 0*10+ 100
107=( 0, 1, 97) but : 100= 0*25+ 1*10+ 90
107=( 0, 2, 87) but : 100= 0*25+ 2*10+ 80
107=( 0, 3, 77) but : 100= 0*25+ 3*10+ 70
107=( 0, 4, 67) but : 100= 0*25+ 4*10+ 60
107=( 0, 5, 57) but : 100= 0*25+ 5*10+ 50
107=( 0, 6, 47) but : 100= 0*25+ 6*10+ 40
107=( 0, 7, 37) but : 100= 0*25+ 7*10+ 30
107=( 0, 8, 27) but : 100= 0*25+ 8*10+ 20
107=( 0, 9, 17) but : 100= 0*25+ 9*10+ 10
107=( 0, 10, 7) but : 100= 0*25+ 10*10+ 0
107=( 1, 0, 82) but : 100= 1*25+ 0*10+ 75
107=( 1, 1, 72) but : 100= 1*25+ 1*10+ 65
107=( 1, 2, 62) but : 100= 1*25+ 2*10+ 55
107=( 1, 3, 52) but : 100= 1*25+ 3*10+ 45
107=( 1, 4, 42) but : 100= 1*25+ 4*10+ 35
107=( 1, 5, 32) but : 100= 1*25+ 5*10+ 25
107=( 1, 6, 22) but : 100= 1*25+ 6*10+ 15
107=( 1, 7, 12) but : 100= 1*25+ 7*10+ 5
107=( 1, 8, 2) is good
107=( 2, 0, 57) but : 100= 2*25+ 0*10+ 50
107=( 2, 1, 47) but : 100= 2*25+ 1*10+ 40
107=( 2, 2, 37) but : 100= 2*25+ 2*10+ 30
107=( 2, 3, 27) but : 100= 2*25+ 3*10+ 20
107=( 2, 4, 17) but : 100= 2*25+ 4*10+ 10
107=( 2, 5, 7) but : 100= 2*25+ 5*10+ 0
107=( 3, 0, 32) but : 100= 3*25+ 0*10+ 25
107=( 3, 1, 22) but : 100= 3*25+ 1*10+ 15
107=( 3, 2, 12) but : 100= 3*25+ 2*10+ 5
107=( 3, 3, 2) is good
107=( 4, 0, 7) but : 100= 4*25+ 0*10+ 0
