Question 343749: I have a word problem that goes like this. There are 4 dimes. There are also half as many nickels as dimes and 3x as many quarters. How much money do you have in total ? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 4 dimes = 40 cents.
There are also half as many nickels as dimes: 2*5 = 10 cents
And 3x as many quarters.: = 3*25 = 75 cents
--------------------------------------------------------
How much money do you have in total ?
40 + 10 + 75 = 125 cents = $1.25
