1. (as with any number, it can only be divided equally one way)
Given: 10d + 25q = 895 cents d + q = 52 coins Multiply everything in the second equasion by 10 (to get rid of the dimes). 10d + 10q = 520 Subtract this 3rd equation from the 1st equation: 10d + 25q = 895 10d + 10d = 520 Giving you: 15q = 375 Divide both sides by 15 and you get q = 25 This means you have 25 quarters ($6.25) and 27 dimes ($2.70) CHECK: 25 quarters + 27 dimes = 52 coins (CORRECT) $6.25 + $2.70 = $8.95 (CORRECT)
