As I tell my wife break the problem down.
Do 3 quarters first.
When you have the answer to that multiply it by 10 (add a zero).
You will then have your correct answer.

The last time I tried
to help a woman do math
I got three days of,

"You think I'm stupid,

Is that what you think?!"

that isn’t even a proper way to approach it

$1.50 consists of 6 quarters ( 4+2) so 5 euros will yield the following 6x5= 30 quarters
