Question

Karen has one nickel one dime one quarter one half dollar and one silver dollar. If she lost one coin she has exactly seven times more then her brother. What coin did she lose

Answer 1

Answer:

If she started with a nickel, a dime, a quarter, a half-dollar, and a dollar, she started with $1.90, which is to say 190 cents.

If she takes away one of the coins she either has 185, 180, 165, 140, or 90 cents remaining. Only one of those numbers is evenly divisible by 7.
