Question

Sadi had $5. She spent $3 on school supplies. She wants to exchange the money she has left for quarters for the vending machine. How many quarters will she get?

Answer 1

8 quarters

Explanation:

1 dollar is 25 cents

25 is one fourth of a dollar

Answer 2

8

Explanation:

one quarter is 25 cents or 1/4 of a dollar therefore 4 quarters = 1 dollar

there are 2 dollars left over because 5-3= 2, so since there are 4 quarters in each dollar she has 8 quarters.
