A nickel is 5 cents and a quarter is 25 cents. If T is the total number of cents, the expression would be
T = 5n + 25y
classifacation of algebraic expression according to the number of terms
The minimum number of quarters, pennies, and nickels needed to make up 123 cents is 4 quarters, 4 nickels, and 3 pennies.

an algebraic expression is an expression built up from constants, variables, and a finite number of algebraic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication,division and exponentiation to a power that is a rational number). For example,
classifacation of algebraic expression according to the number of terms
The minimum number of quarters, pennies, and nickels needed to make up 123 cents is 4 quarters, 4 nickels, and 3 pennies.
a common factor
There are five nickels (5¢) in a quarter (25¢) so the rule is: 1) Divide the number of nickels by 5 to get the number of quarters 2) The remainder, if any, is the number of nickels left over For example, if you have 17 nickels, 17/5 = 3 rem 2, so that means you have 3 quarters with 2 nickels remaining. To confirm, 17 nickels are worth a total of 85¢ (5 * 17); 3 quarters = 75¢ so 10 cents - i.e. 2 nickels - would be left over.

The Base in the Algebraic Expression can be a Number or A Variable. EX. 42 or X2 - 4 and X are the base.
an algebraic expression is an expression built up from constants, variables, and a finite number of algebraic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication,division and exponentiation to a power that is a rational number). For example,
Let the number be x and so the expression is 8x
If you call your number x, the expression would be 5x.
The algebraic expression for three more than a number is: X + 3
