Answer:

Walt has 37 quarters.  Hank has 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the given equation for q:

0.25q + 0.25q - 1.00 = 17.50

Simplify this, obtaining:

0.50q = 18.50

Simplifying this by multiplying both terms of this result by 100:

50 q = 1850

Thus, q = 1850/50 = 37

Walt has 37 quarters.  Hank has 33.

Note that 37 + 33 = 70, and that 70($0.25) = $17.50.  So our results are correct.
