Joseph has 4 times as many quarters as he does dimes. If he has a total of $2.20, how many of each type of coin does he have?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Joseph has Q quarters and D dimes.
\n" ); document.write( "We know that \"Q=4D\".
\n" ); document.write( "We know Joseph has 220 cents, so \"25Q%2B10D+=+220\".
\n" ); document.write( "Replace Q with 4D, and we get \"25%2A4%2AD%2B10D+=+220\".
\n" ); document.write( "Or, \"110D+=+220\".
\n" ); document.write( "So, \"D=2\".
\n" ); document.write( "He has 2 dimes and 4 times as many quarters or 8 quarters.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To verify:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2 dimes + 8 quarters = 20 cents + 200 cents = 220 cents = $2.20.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
