Jaime has 6 quarters and some dimes in his pocket . the total value of the coins in 4.50. how many dimes does he have in his pockets

Hi there! :)

Jaime has 30 dimes in his pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

First off, you need to know that:

A quarter is equal to = $0.25

A dime is equal to = $0.10

Jaime has 6 quarters, which means that he has 6 times $0.25:

6 × 0.25 = $1.50

Jaime has a total of $4.50 → Subtract the amout of money represented by the quarters and you'll be left with the amout of money represented by the dimes:

4.50 - 1.50 = $3

Jaime has $3 worth of dimes in his pocket. In order to know how many dimes $3 represents, you'll need to divide "3" by 0.10, which is what 1 dime is worth:

3 ÷ 0.10 = 30 → YOUR ANSWER

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
