        //placeholder is to keep the value of the remainder for the next step in the equation.

        placeholder = cent % 25; 
        
        //The remainder (placeholder) will be divided by the value of a dime. 
        //Then it will be checked for a remainder and continue the procces until the lowest value, penny
        dime = placeholder / 10; 
        placeholder = placeholder % 10;
      
        nickel = placeholder / 5;

        //print 
        System.out.println ("Quarters:" + quarter + "\nDimes:" + dime + "\nNickels:" + nickel + "\nPennies:" + penny);
