I’LL GIVE YOU MY SOUL JUST HELP ME OUT WITH THIS PROBLEM?! A coin collector has $1.75 in dimes and nickels. She has seven more dimes than nickels. How many nickels does she have?

If you have 14 dimes, it gives you a total of $1.40, plus if you have 7 nickels it would give you $0.35. Add $1.40+$0.35=$1.75!!!
So the answer is you have 14 dimes, and 7 nickels!!!! That is 7 more dimes than nickels!!!
I hope this helped you out! :)

Well 7 dimes would be 70 cents because a dime is ¢10 so I believe you would subtract 1.75 dollars and 70¢ which I believe is $1.05 so a nickel 5 cents. So I believe you would divide 1.05 by .5
