Connor has seven more nickels than dimes and twice as many quarters as dimes. If he has $6.20, how many nickels does he have?

Connor has 16 nickels. If you have 9 dimes (90 cents) and you doubled it that would give you 18 quarters ($4.50). you have 7 more nickels than dimes, so you do 7+9 which equals 16 nickels (80 cents). 90+450+80=620.
