Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The worth of a dime is 10 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes
10/100 = $0.1
The worth of a quarter is 25 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes
25/100 = $0.25
The worth of a nickel is 5 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes
5/100 = $0.05
The worth of a penny is 1 cent. Converting to dollars, it becomes
1/100 = $0.01
Let d represent the number of dimes that he has.
Let n represent the number of nickels that he has.
Let q represent the number of quarters that he has.
He also claims that there are exactly twenty-three pennies.. This means that the total value of the pennies he has is
23 × 0.01 = $0.23
Henry has quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies in a coin jar. He says that the total amount of money is two dollars and forty-one cents.
Therefore, the equation which represents the relationship expressed above is
0.1d + 0.25q + 0.05n + 0.23 = 2.41
