## Description
|
|
|
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
|
|
|
In England the currency is made up of pound, £, and pence, p, and there are eight coins in general circulation:
|
|
|
|
|
1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1 (100p) and £2 (200p).
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to make £2 in the following way:
|
|
|
|
|
1×£1 + 1×50p + 2×20p + 1×5p + 1×2p + 3×1p
|
|
|
|
|
How many different ways can £(n) be made using any number of coins?
