Question

Joni has 184 coins and 32 of them are nickels. 25% of the remaining coins are dimes. How many dimes does Joni have?

Answer 1

C 38
184-32
thats 152
multiply that by .25

Answer 2

Joni has 184 coins. If 32 of them are nickels, that means the remaining 152 (184 - 32) are different coins. 

If 25% of the remaining 152 coins are dimes, that means 38 of the 152 coins are dimes. (152 × 0.25).

So the answer is C. 38.
