The same reason 4 dimes and 4 pennies aren't equal.
To put it into decimal terms, 4/10 is 0.40 (or forty cents), whereas 4/100 is 0.04 (or four cents)

Answer:
The soda costs 2.20 and the sandwich costs 7.70
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this, set the soda cost as x. We now know that the sandwich cost is 3.5x. Add these together and set equal to 9.90
x + 3.5x = 9.90
4.5x = 9.90
x = 2.20
This is the cost of the soda. Now we can multiply that by 3.5 to get the sandwich cost.
3.5 * 2.20 = 7.70
Equation 1. N+D=500
equation 2 5N+10D=3000
This is for equation 1
N=500-d
Substitute into equations 2 and solve for D
5N+10D=3000
5(500-D)+10D=3000
2500-5D+10D=3000
5D=500
D=100
Lets go back the equation 1
N=500-D
N=500-100
N=400
there are 400 Nickles and 100 Dimes
