Answer:
$6.35
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of pennies = 10% of the 50 coins = .10(50) = 5
Number of dimes = 34% of the 50 coins = .34(50) = 17
Number of nickels = 7 + no. of pennies = 7 + 5 = 12
Number of quarters = 50 - 5 - 17 - 12 = 16
Each penny is 1 cent, each nickel is 5 cents, each dime is 10 cents, and each quarter is 25 cents.
Amount of money in the bag = 5(1) + 17(10) + 12(5) + 16(25) = 5 + 170 + 60 + 400 = 635 cents = $6.35
