Can you figure out how much money I have in my change purse?
- The number of dimes is equal to the number of sides on a quadrilateral
- I have 2 less quarters than the number of pennies
- The number of nickels is equal to twice the number of quarters
- The number of pennies is the same as the number of feet in a yard
Show your work.
For 4th and 5th graders: The thickness of nickel is 1.95 mm. and I
can stack approximately 13 nickels for every inch. How much money would
I have if I had 1 foot of nickels?
