Final answer:

The correct sequence of numbers April would name while counting her six 5-cent coins is '5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5' since each coin's value is 5 cents and she has six of them.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student question is asking to list the numbers April would have named while counting the value of her 6 coins, each of 5 cents. When counting coins of the same denomination, you would count up by the value of the coin. So, if April has six 5-cent coins, she would name each coin's value as she counts: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 cents. By the time she counts all six coins, she will have reached a total value of 30 cents. However, the question seems to ask what value each individual coin represents in sequence, which would simply be '5 cents' repeatedly for each of the six coins. So, the correct answer would be 'B. 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5', as each coin adds another 5 cents to the total count.
