Is there answer choices to this question?

rishavraj · Answer

100 cents = $1 ????@563blackghost

563blackghost · Answer

Yes! Well in America

rishavraj · Answer

@Najia2000  see it means its total 695 cents
if no of dimes = x
then no of quarters = 38 - x
so 10x + 25(38 - x) = 695

rishavraj · Answer

solve and get "x"

563blackghost · Answer

dimes is to equal d 
quarters is to equal q

texaschic101 · Answer

d + q = 38
.10d + .25q = 6.25
