Question

Marta put $4.89 in her coin bank. Each day she added 1 quarter, 1 nickel, and 6 pennies. How much does she add each day? How much money was in her coin bank after 6 days?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Marta put $4.89 in her coin bank.

Each day she added 1 quarter, 1 nickel, and 6 pennies.

We know that,

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 penny = 1 cent

⇒ 6 pennies = 6 cent

Total amount added in 6 days,

= 25 cents + 5 cents + 6 cent

= 36 cents

We know that,

1$ = 100 cents

36 cents = $0.36

Total money in her bank,

= $4.89 + $0.36

= $5.25

Hence, this is the required solution.
