Question

Kendall has only quarters and dimes in her pocket. The total value of these coins is $1.50. The equation below can be used to find q, the number quarters, and d, the number of dimes in her pocket. If Kendall has 4 quarters in her pocket, how many dimes are in her pocket? 25g + 10d = 150​

Answer 1

Answer: We can use the equation to find the number of dimes in Kendall's pocket:

25g + 10d = 150

25 * 4 + 10d = 150

100 + 10d = 150

10d = 50

d = 5

So Kendall has 5 dimes in her pocket.
