Answer:

he has 32 of each kind

Step-by-step explanation:

conver the cents to dollar

48 cents = $0.48

5 cents = $0.05

let x be the number of 40cents and 5 cents.

(since the problem said that the same number of 48 cents and 5 cents)

0.48x+0.05x=16.96

0.53x=16.96

x=32

to check

0.48×32+0.05×32=16.96
