Susie has 34 nickels and dimes. Their total value is $2.35. How much of each does she have?

Given:

Susie has 34 nickels and dimes. Their total value is $2.35.

To find:

The number of nickels and number of dimes.

Solution:

Let the number of nickels be x and number of dimes be y.

Susie has 34 nickels and dimes.

       ....(i)

We know that,

1 nickel = $0.05

1 dime = $0.10

Their total value is $2.35.

Multiply both sides by 100.

Divide both sides by 5.

   ...(ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get

Putting y=13 in (i), we get

Therefore, number of nickels is 21 and number of dimes is 13.
