Subtract one 50-cent coin from $43.20 to ensure that there will always be more 50-cent coins than 20-cent coins.
$43.20 - $0.50
= $42.70
= $0.70 × 61
= ($0.50 + $0.20) × 61
There are 62 50-cent coins

Is it this?
20 + 20 + 20 + (3.14 x 20) = 122.80
The 3 semi circles could add up to be a semicircle of the big square of 20cm by taking the 3 circles' diameters add up to be the length of the side (20cm) ; while the top lines add up to the other breadth (20cm)

I think need to divide 62.8 by 2 coz they are semicircles not the full circle
(20 x 3.14)÷2=31.4
20+20+20+31.4=91.4

I had never thought of it before but it is really true that the circumference of three semicircles whose diameters have a sum of 20 is equal to the circumference of a semicircle whose diameter is 20. That question in itself is a good assignment. Thank you for this.

You are most welcome. You have a brilliant Sunday yourself. Regards
Concept here is that because triangles B and D share the same base and their heights form the breadth of the rectangle, the sum of their areas is half the area of the rectangle.
The same thing applies to triangle A and C.
That's why A+C = B+D
