This is how you solve this problem:
.10d + .05n = 5.25
(plug in the number of dimes we have)
(21 x .1) + .05n = 5.25
(multiply number of dimes x value of the dime)
2.10 + .05n = 5.25
(subtract 2.10 from both sides)
.05n = 3.15
(divide both sides by .05 to get the number of nickels)
n = 63 nickels
Hope this helps!

Answer:
1: D
2: B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number of butterflies he collects = 176
The number of moth he collects = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
This question has to do with ratio.
We are told in the question that:He collects 4 butterflies for every moth.
Hence, the ratio of
Butterflies : Moth
4 : 1
Sum of the proportion = 4 + 1 = 5
We are also told he has a total of 220 butterflies and moths.
Hence:
The number of butterflies he collects is calculated as
4/5 × 220 = 176 butterflies
The number of moth that he collects =
1/5 × 220 = 44 moth
