<span>Importance should be given to all the information’s already given in the question.</span>Number of fossils that Elmer has = 300
Percentage of snail shell fossils = 21%
Then
Number of snail shell fossils that Elmer has = (21/100) * 300
                                                                       = 21 * 3
                                                                       = 63
So Elmer has 63 snail shell fossils.I hope the procedure is absolutely clear to you and the answer is also correct. Following this procedure it will be possible for you to solve such question with ease in future.<span>

Sarah has 284 coins in a piggy bank with a total value of $22.78. Sarah has 173 pennies, 5 more dimes than nickels, the rest are
pickupchik [31]
Let P = number of coins of pennies (1 penny = 1 cent)
Let N = number of coins of nickels (1 nickel = 5 cents)
Let D = number of coins of dimes (1 dime = 10 cents)
Let Q = number of coins of quarters (1 quarter = 25 cents)

a) P + N + D + Q = 284 coins, but P = 173 coins, then:
173 + N + D + Q =284 coins
(1)  N + D + Q = 111 coins

b) D = N + 5 OR D - N =5 coins
(2) D - N = 5 coins

c) Let's find the VALUE in CENTS of (1) that is N + D + Q = 111 coins
5N + 10D + 25 Q = 2,278 - 173 (1 PENNY)
(3) 5N + 10D + 25Q = 2105 cents
Now we have 3 equation with 3 variables:

(1)  N + D + Q = 111 coins
(2) D - N = 5 coins
(3) 5N + 10D + 25Q = 2105 cents
Solving it gives:
17 coins N ( x 5 = 85 cents)
22 coins D ( x 10 = 220 cents)
72 coins D ( x 25 = 1,800 cents)
and 173 P,
proof:
that makes a total of 85+2201800+172 =2,278 c or $22.78
