Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.

As per given,

x+y = 205    ...(i)

0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii)    [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]

Multiply (ii) by 20, we get

x+5y=637   ...(iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii)

4y = 432

⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]

Put value of y in (i), we get

108+x=205\Rightarrow\ x= 97

Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.

Hi ;-)

-\frac{1}{3}-(-\frac{1}{2})=-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{2}{6}+\frac{3}{6}=\frac{3}{6}-\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{6}\\\\3\frac{1}{3}-5=-(5-3\frac{1}{3})=-(4\frac{3}{3}-3\frac{1}{3})=-1\frac{2}{3}\\\\-1\frac{4}{5}-(-2\frac{7}{8})=-1\frac{4}{5}+2\frac{7}{8}=-1\frac{32}{40}+2\frac{35}{40}=2\frac{35}{40}-1\frac{32}{40}=1\frac{3}{40}\\\\-3\frac{3}{8}-\frac{7}{8}=-(3\frac{3}{8}+\frac{7}{8})=-3\frac{10}{8}=-3\frac{5}{4}=-4\frac{1}{4}\\\\4\frac{3}{4}-(-1\frac{1}{12})=4\frac{9}{12}+1\frac{1}{12}=5\frac{10}{12}
