What coins make up the value of a dollar?
Given some dollar value in cents (e.g. 200 = 2 dollars, 1000 = 10 dollars), find all the combinations of coins that make up the dollar value. There are only pennies (1¢), nickels (5¢), dimes (10¢), and quarters (25¢) allowed.

How do you make 55p from 2p coins?
The two 2p coins plus the 1p coin can be replaced with a 5p coin. The total of the money is 55 pence. Instead of using the original combination of coins, we can also make 55p from a single 50p coin and a single 5p coin. In this example we have three 10p coins, two 5p coins and three 2p coins.
