Part A- Not, she is not correct, because 5 quarters and 3 dimes is only 8 coins. _________________________________________________
Part B- The correct answer is 8 dimes and 3 quarters, because 8 dimes = .80, and 3 quarters = .75, and .80 + .75 = $1.55, which is your answer. _____________________________________ Glad I could help, and good luck! :)
