Let w = number of 1 cent coins, x = number of 5 cent coins, y = number of 10 cent coins, and z = number of 25 cent coins.
We know two things.
\(0.01w+0.05x+0.1y+0.25z=175\)
\(w+x+y+z=3576\)
Let's eliminate w because we can.
\(0.01(3576-x-y-z)+0.05x+0.1y+0.25z=175\)
\(0.04x+0.09y+0.24z=139.24\)
There will be more than one solution for this problem. Let's settle for finding just one of them by saying z=0 and y=0.
\(0.04x=139.24\)
\(x=3481\)
\(w+3481=3576\)
\(w=95\)
One solution to this problem would be 95 one cent coins, 3481 five cent coins 0 ten cent coins, 0 twenty-five cent coins.
