Answer 2

16.05 dollars

Explanation:

First we convert all the units in cents.

As we know :

1 nickel = 5 cents

34 nickels = 34 × 5 = 170 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

26 dimes = 26 × 10 = 260 cents

1 quarter = 25 cents

21 quarter = 21 × 25 = 525 cents

and 50 cents Pieces = 13

= 13 × 50 = 650 cents

Felisha has total = 170 + 260 + 525 + 650 = 1605 cents

100 cents = 1 Dollar

1605 cents = 1605 ÷ 100 = $16.05

Felisha has total $16.05.
