Knowing that one dime has a 10 cent value and that a nickle has a 5 cent value, we can use multiplication or addition to find the answer.

5 x 10 = 50 5 dimes together are worth 50 cents.

2 x 5 = 10 2 nickles together are worth 10 cents.

50 + 10 = 60 5 dimes and 2 nickles are worth 60 cents when added together.

ANSWER: Aaron has 60 cents.
