Question 915468: jennifer has only two types of coins in her wallet, quarters and dimes. she has twice as many dimes as quarters. If the total value of the coins in her wallet is $1.35, how many quarters and dimes does she have ? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x the number of quarters
CENTS makes sense
25x + 10(2x) = 135cents
45x = 135
x = 3, the number of quarters. Dimes 6
and...checking
75 + 60 = 135 0r $1.35
