Answer:

16 quarters and 28 nickels

Explanation:

Because...

1 quarter=25 cents of so if you have 16 quarters that=4.00$

2 if there are 12 more nickels then there are 28 nickels.

1 nickle=5 cents. so what is 28 x 5=1.40$

Then add 4.00$+1.40$=5.40$ and there is your answer.

Hope this helps have a great day:)
