The total value of dimes and quarters in the bank is $6.05. There are six more quarters than dimes. How many dimes and how many quarters
-----------------
Put the 6 additional quarters to the side.
6 Q's = $1.50
605 - 150 = 455
Each set of 1Q and 1D = 35 cents
455/35 = 13 sets
--> 13 dimes & 19 quarters
