Bella has $0.66 worth of pennies and
nickels. She has 6 more nickels than
pennies. Determine the number of pennies
and the number of nickels that Bella has.

Answer 1

12 nickels, 6 pennies

Explanation:

If she has 66 cents of them and 6 more nickels than pennies than you already know 30 cents are nickels so you are left with 36 cents left and 6 will be pennies and the other 6 nickels for a total of 6 pennies and 12 nickels.
