Well, given that a quarter equals 5 nickels, we can reason that, in order to get 12 coins, we would have to get 10 nickels (equals 50 cents) and 2 quarters (the other 50 cents, to make a dollar).
You didn't say whether you needed this expressed in a mathematical formula, but knowing the answer already, it shouldn't be hard to come up with one if necessary.
Hope this helps.

15
= <u>9 + 5</u>
15
=14/ 15
Answer: The answer is 30 sq.ft/min and 25 sq.ft/min.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are two spray paint machines. The first machine (nicknamed "Paint Pro") is used for two hours and the second machine (nicknamed "Goldilocks") is used for an hour and a half. When they are working at the same time, they can paint 55 square feet per minute and together they painted 5850 square feet of wall.
Let 'x' and 'y' sq.ft/min be the portion of the wall painted by Paint Pro and Goldilocks respectively.
Then, according to the question, we have
Multiplying first equation by 4 and subtracting the second equation from it, we have

and

Thus, Paint Pro will paint 30 sq.feet per minute and Goldilocks will paint 25 sq.ft per minute.
