Kendra has $5.25 in nickels and quarters. If she has 15 more quarters than nickels, how many of each coin does she have?

Question

anonymous · Answer

let number of quarters be x so value in cents is 25x
according to question number of nickels =x+15 so value of this is 5(x+15)
now equation will be
25x + 5x+75 = 525 cents
solve for x which is number of quarters
plug in value of x in x+15 which will give you number of nickels
