Question 1066601: There are only nickels and quarters in Sammy's piggy bank. If there are 28 coins in the bank having a total value of $3.40, and if the quarters alone have a total value of $2.50, how many nickels are there? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):

10 quarters mean 18 nickels.
If the quarters are $2.50, there is $0.90 left, which would require 18 nickels, dividing it by $0.05
