f = number of $5 bills
t = number of $20 bills
-----------------------------
A bank teller has 51 $20 and $5
f + t = 51
Multiply both sides by 5
5f + 5t = 255 Eq 1
--------------------
value of the bills is $510
5f + 20t = 510 Eq 2
--------------------
Subtract Eq 1 from Eq 2
5f + 20t = 510
- (5f + 5t = 255)
–––––––––––––––––
15t = 255
Divide both sides by 15
t = 17 <–––––––

Make X the number of $20 bills.
Therefor 51-X is the number of $5 bills.
20X + 5(51-X) = 510
20X + 255 - 5X = 510
15X + 255 = 510
15X = 510 - 255
15X = 255
X = 17
17 $20 bills
