Currency Question
Suppose you want to break a US$100 bill into:
2 20-dollar bills, 5 10-dollar bills, 1 5-dollar bill, and 5 1-dollar bills, can you say like "I want two twenties, five tens, one five, and five ones(singles)."?
And, in this case, 'five ones/five singles', which would be better?
Also,
I want all in change./I want all in changes.
Can I have the change in coins./Can I have change in coins.
Which of these expressions are grammatically correct?
Thank you
