How do you get 88 cents in 9 coins?
2 quarters, 3 dimes, 1 nickel, 3 pennies. I worked it out by knowing that 3 pennies would be needed for sure (to get from 85 to 88), but not 8 pennies, since there's no 80 cent coin. Then just started working it out with quarters, then seeing how many dimes, and then nickels would work out to the six remaining coins.
What 5 coins equal 85 cents?
3 quarters & 2 nickels
If the price is 545.28 after a 15 percent discount how do you find the original price?
If you received a 15 per cent discount, you paid 100-15 = 85 per cent of the original price. And this was the 545.28. So the question can be re-stated as: if 85% is 545.28 what is 100% ? and the answer is 545.28/85*100 = 641.51
