1 half dollar is worth 50¢

1 quarter is worth 25¢

1 dime is worth 10¢

1 nickel is worth 5¢

1 penny is worth 1¢

————————————-

SOLVING FOR YOUR ANSWER

Total quarters: 9

9 * $0.25

= $2.25

Total dimes: 18

18 * $0.10

= $1.80

Total of nickels: 9

9 * $0.05

= 0.45

MEETING YOUR ANSWER:

9 * 3

= 9 + 9 + 9

= 27

27 * $0.05

= $1.35

Thus your answer is: $1.35

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
