Lets write down the information that we know.
Jessie has 7 stacks of 6 dimes, so Jessie has a total of 6*7 dimes
Dimes=7*6=42dimes
Jessie has 42 dimes, but then she found another one so lets add one more dime.
42+1=43 dimes
Jessie has 8 stacks of 5 nickels, so Jessie has 8*5 nickels
Nickels=8*5=40nickels
Jessie has 40 nickels, but then she found another one so lets add 1 to the total number of nickels.
40+1=41nickels
Now we can answer the question.
How many dimes and nickels does jessie have in all?
nickels+dimes=
41+43=84 coins
Jessie has 84 coins in total
