To solve this problem using a table and play money, we can create a table with the given item prices - postcard ($1.13), keychain ($3.87), park ranger patch ($5.33), and stuffed animal ($8.79).

1) First, let's find out the possible combinations of items each person could have bought with the given amounts:

- Jamie spent $5.00, so he could have bought a postcard ($1.13) and a keychain ($3.87).

- Darla spent $9.20, so she could have bought a park ranger patch ($5.33) and a keychain ($3.87).

- Abraham had $5.10, which doesn't match the exact amount of any single item. So, we need to find if Abraham could buy a combination of items totaling $5.10.

2) To determine Abraham's possible combination, we will use the table and play money to form different combinations:

- Starting with the most expensive item, the stuffed animal ($8.79), we can see it's not possible to buy this item alone since Abraham only had $5.10.

- Next, we look at the park ranger patch. Since this item costs $5.33, Abraham cannot buy it alone either.

- Now, let's try a combination of the keychain and the postcard, which is $1.13 (postcard) + $3.87 (keychain) = $5.00. Abraham had $5.10, which means he could have bought the keychain and the postcard.

3) Lastly, we need to determine the number of dollar bills that the coins equal. Since Abraham spent $5.10, which is effectively $5 + $0.10, we know that he used 5 dollar bills. The remaining 10 cents is equivalent to 10 coins (assuming they are pennies).

So, in conclusion, Abraham could have paid for his purchases ($5.10) with 3 bills (5 dollar bills) and 20 coins (10 pennies).
