    Prob of just quarter is 3/14 for a dime is 4/14 and for a nickel its 7/14

    then all you do is multiply them all together to get 306122449 / 10000000000 that took me way to long

    How I did it:

    I did 3/13, and got 0.23, I didn't do 14 because if its going to be chosen, its going to have one less, and I did the same for the other ones. Then I simply just multiplied them.
