Pod number By: Angel Acevedo

The question #3: I have 50 coins in a jar 9 (quarters, dimes, and nickels only) that are worth $5.00 in total. I have three times as many nickels as quarters. The number of dimes is 1 more than the number of nickels. How many of each type of coin do I have?

The work First I tried 9q,19n, 22d 9*.25= *.5=.95 22*.10= =5.4 I figured that did not work Then I tried 8q,20n,22d 8*.25= *.5= *.10= =5.20 Q=quarters N=nickels D=dimes Then I tried 9q, 21n, 22d 7*.25= *.5= *.10= =5.00

The answer 7 quarters,21nickels, and 22dimes

Any questions
