x=# of coins
.01x+.05x+.10x+.25x=3287.38
.41x=3287.38
x=8018 of each coin
Pennies: 8018 x .08 oz = 641.44 oz = 40.09 lbs
Nickels: 8018 x .161 oz = 1290.9 oz = 80.68 lbs
Dimes: 8018 x .0729 oz = 584.51 oz = 36.53 lbs
Quarters:8018 x .182 oz = 1459.28 oz = 91.21 lbs
Total weight = 40.09+80.68+36.53+91.21 = 248.51 lbs.
