Question

Arnold had $1.70 in dimes and quarters. He had 3 more dimes than Quarters. How many of each coin did he have?

Answer 1

Answer: 4 quarters 7 dimes

Step-by-step explanation: 4 quarters is $1, 4 + 3 is 7, each dime is worth 10 cents, so 70 cents. $1 + .70 = $1.70

Answer 2

four quarters and seven dimes

Each quarter is 25 cents so, $0.25 * 4 = $1.00
Each dime is 10 cents so, $0.10 * 7 = $0.70

So, $1.00 + $0.70 = $1.70
