Question 1124338: Edna has saved P4.50 for the week consisting of 5 centavo and 10 centavo coins. How many 10 centavo coins does she has if she has 6 more 10 centavo coins than 5 centavo coins?

n = number of 5 centavo coins
d = number of 10 centavo coins
5n + 10d = 450
d = n + 6
Plug in the second equation into the first.
5n + 10n + 60 = 450
15n = 390
n = 26
Edna has 26 five-centavo coins and 32 ten-centavo coins.
