Question

Michelle has some dimes and quarters. If she has 22 coins worth a total of $2.50, how many of each type of coin does she have?

Answer 1

Answer:

DIMES: 5             Quarters: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

She could have 5 dimes because we know 1 dime is 10 cents,and we know 5*10=50. And we can have 8 quarters because we know 4 quarters is $1.00,and 8 quarters would be $2.00. 2.00+.50=2.50.
