Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
A number line can be used to find the difference because you can count from 28 to 34 and the number you get will be your answer.

The formal name for the property
of equality that
allows one to add the same quantity to both sides
of an equation.
This is one
of the most commonly used properties for solving equations.
The formula tells us that if a = b, then a + c = b + c. The letters a and b stand for two separate numbers, our two twins, and the letter c
stands for what we give to each twin to keep them matching. So, for
example, if we add 1 to the left side of the equation, we must also add 1
to the right side of the equation. By doing this, we keep the equation,
the twins, the same.
Answer: correct choice is B.
