Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n, d, q represent the numbers of nickels, dimes, and quarters. The problem statement tells us ...
n +d +q = 37
n = d +4
q = n +2
___
Rearranging the second equation gives ...
d = n -4
Substituting that into the first, we get ...
n + (n -4) +q = 37
2n +q = 41 . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
Rearranging the third original equation gives ...
n = q -2
Substituting into the equation we just made, we get ...
2(q -2) +q = 41
3q = 45 . . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
q = 15 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

The number of nickels is 2 fewer, so is 13. The number of dimes is 4 fewer than that, so is 9. The total number of coins is 15 + 13 + 9 = 37, as required.
