Jack is counting out his register at the end of his shift in the shop. His till has 2 $100 bills, 1 $50 bill, 5 $20 bills, 3 $10 bills, 7 $5 bills, 27 $1 bills, and a certain amount of change in coins. If he is supposed to leave $300 in notes as well as all the coins in the till and turn the rest in to the main office, how much money will he be handing in? Give me reasons, before answering the question

Jack's till has 2 * $100 + 1 * $50 + 5 * $20 + 3 * $10 + 7 * $5 + 27 * $1 bills, or $200 + $50 + $100 + $30 + $35 + $27 = $442. He's going to leave $300 in the till and turn the rest in to the office, so he'll be turning in $442 - $300 = $142. So the final answer is 142.
