It is a trick question.
I think the question is worded
'how can you get 30p with two coins, one of the coins cannot be a 20p piece.'
the answer is then a 10p and a 20p.
one of the coins cannot be a 20p piece but the other one can!!

You have 2 coins that = 30 cents. One of the 2 coins IS NOT A
QUARTER. What are the 2 coins?
1 quarter, & 1 nickel

you're purely going to get then all in case you do it so as. Say, operating get collectively, you commence from the optimal to the bottom. a million a million/2-dollar not more effective a million/2-funds may be used, so drop to the subsequent staggering coin: 2 quarters a million quarter, 2 dimes, and a nickel a million quarter, 2 dimes, and 5 pennies a million quarter, one dime, and three nickels a million quarter, one dime, 2 nickels and 5 pennies a million quarter, one dime, one nickel and ten pennies a million quarter, one dime, fifteen pennies a million quarter, 5 nickels a million quarter, 4 nickels, 5 pennies a million quarter, 3 nickels, ten pennies a million quarter, 2 nickels, fifteen pennies a million quarter, one nickel, twenty pennies a million quarter, twenty-5 pennies Now drop the quarter and bypass on - you get the conception. There are a group of possibilities, and seventy-5 cents may be even worse. sturdy fulfillment.
