Answer:

  • 40 quarters and 32 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Quarter = 25 ¢, number of quarters = q
  • Dime = 10 ¢, number of dimes = d
  • Total amount = $13.20 = 1320 ¢

<u>Required equations:</u>

  • q + d = 72
  • 25q + 10d = 1320

<u>Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by 10 and subtract from the second equation:</u>

  • 25q + 10d - 10q - 10d = 1320 - 10*72
  • 15q = 600
  • q = 600/15
  • q = 40

<u>Find p:</u>

  • 40 + p = 72
  • p = 72 - 40
  • p = 32

When increasing a percentage I usually just turn the percentage to a decimal. So, let's say you have 100 gallons of gas and it'll get an increase by 20%, just multiply 100 by .20 and you'll get 20, then add 20 to 100 to see what you'll have after. In this case, 15% would be .15, just multiply 22 by .15 to see how much the increase is, then add what you get to 22.
