A Nickel = 5 cents
$2 = 200 cents
So 200 cents divided by 5 cents = 40

A Dime = 10 cents
So 200 cents divided by 10 cents = 20

So the answer would be..
20 Dimes and 40 Nickels.

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

For dimes you would need 20 and for nickels you would need 40

Explanation:

If you're paying with only dimes then you would need 20 dimes but if you're paying with only nickels then you would need 40 of them. I'm sorry if this doesn't help though.
