Question

Lian has $1.00 She has only nickels and dimes. Lian has twice as many dimes as nickels How many dimes does she have?

Answer 1

Answer: B) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because she has twice as many dime as nickels, that automatically makes 5, 3, and 7 invalid answers since you cannot have whole halfs of them.

8 dimes = 80 c.

8/2 = 4

4 nickles = 20 c.

80c + 20c = $1.00
