Answer: nickels = 13, dimes = 7, quarters = 14

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, set up the equations for each coin:

\begin {array}{c|c|c|l}\underline{\quad Type\quad }&\underline{Value}&\underline{Quantity}&\underline{\qquad \qquad \qquad Equation\qquad }\\ Nickel& \$0.05&6+d&0.05(6+d) = 0.30 + 0.05d\\Dime& \$0.10&d&\qquad 0.10(d)=0.10d\\Quarter& \$0.25&2d&\qquad 0.25(2d)=0.50d\\\end{array}

Next, the sum of the coins is $4.85 so substitute and solve for the variable:

   Nickels         +   Dimes  +   Quarters = Sum

(0.30 + 0.05d)  +    0.10d   +     0.50d   =  4.85

0.30 + 0.65d = 4.85

            0.65d = 4.55

                    d = 7

Lastly, plug the d-value into the quantity equation for the nickels and quarters to find their quantity.

nickels: 6 + d   = 6 + (7)   = 13

quarters: 2d   = 2(7)   = 14

How to <br> Write <br> 3/9<br> in simplest form.
White raven [17]
To write it in simplest form, you must find a common factor.

In \frac{3}{9}, 3 is a factor of both 3 and 9

3÷3=1 and 9÷3=3

So \frac{3}{9} =  \frac{1}{3}

\frac{1}{3} is your answer in simplest form.
