There are 62 quarters and 52 dimes in the jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of jar coins = $20.70 = 20.70*100 = 2070 cents

1 Quarter = 25 cents

1 Dime = 10 cents

Let,

Number of quarters = x

Number of dimes = y

According to given statement;

25x+10y=2070    Eqn 1

x=y+10     Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

25(y+10)+10y=2070\\25y+250+10y=2070\\35y=2070-250\\35y=1820\\

Dividing both sides by 35

\frac{35y}{35}=\frac{1820}{35}\\y=52

Putting y=52 in Eqn 2

x=52+10\\x=62

There are 62 quarters and 52 dimes in the jar.
