This is not a homework help site. IF you had code written that had a problem you MIGHT get some help. Nobody here wants to do all your homework for you.

I'll give you a hint: You want to deal with parsing out the coins starting with your largest amount. It's the exact same change-counting algorithm you would do in a store, given a decriminalized currency like the Dollar.

Also, keep in mind the % modulo operator. Might be useful.
