Answer 1

Answer:

11 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

If Thomas ignores the extra 3 dimes, he can arrange his coins in groups of 3 dimes and 1 quarter, each group valued at 55¢. It takes

... 6.05/0.55 = 11

groups to bring the total value to the $6.05 remaining after ignoring the extra dimes.

Thomas has 11 quarters and 36 dimes.
