You have the correct answer.
Check:
10 dimes + 1 quarter = 11 coins ... works
-------------------------------------------------------
10 dimes = $1.00 (10*$0.10 = $1.00)
1 quarter = $0.25 (1*$0.25 = $0.25)
10 dimes + 1 quarter = $1.00 + $0.25 = $1.25 ... works
-------------------------------------------------------
The answer is confirmed.
