Jalon has a coin jar at home that contains quarters and dimes. Quarters are worth $0.25 and dimes are

worth $0.10. He has Q quarters and D dimes.
How much would 5 quarters be worth? 26 quarters? 120 quarters? Q quarters?

Answer 1

To find out how much quarters are worth, multiply the value of one quarter by the number of quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much 5 quarters are worth, we can multiply the value of one quarter by 5. Since 1 quarter is worth $0.25, 5 quarters would be worth $0.25 x 5 = $1.25.

Similarly, to find out how much 26 quarters are worth, we can multiply the value of one quarter by 26. So, 26 quarters would be worth $0.25 x 26 = $6.50.

To find out how much 120 quarters are worth, we can multiply the value of one quarter by 120. Therefore, 120 quarters would be worth $0.25 x 120 = $30.

For Q quarters, we can multiply the value of one quarter by Q. So, Q quarters would be worth $0.25 x Q = $0.25Q.
