    Break the problem down...how would you do this by hand? Write it out on paper...that's your logic/algorithm. Then convert that to code.

    So i'm trying to help and not give the answer!
    Basicly im just giving tips!
    also just try to get the code you need from internet! NOT FROM ME ;P

    47,92

    Take the first number (4)
    make that into your 10 dollarbills
    int TenDollarBills = bla bla

    then looking at the 7.
    you can do a while loop
    while (SecondDigit >= 5)
    FiveDollarBills - 5


    SecondDigit = Dollars

    This is how I would confront it! Good luck and hope you get the 5% extra!

    @Niels van Ee, please keep in mind dates the dates on threads - this one in particular is around a 1 1/2 years old, which is an eternity in internet and forum time (and in homework time, way too late to get the '5% extra')
