Question

Neely has $1.73 in coins. He gives his friend 1 quarter and 3 nickels.

What is the value of the coins he has left?

Answer 1

1.33

Explanation:

A quarter is worth 25 cents so subtract it from $1.73.

1.73 - .25 = 1.48

So then you subtract the 3 nickels which equal 15 cents.

1.73 - .15 = 1.33

So the value left is $1.33.

Answer 2

2.13

Explanation:

1.73+.25=1.98

1.98+.15= 2.13
