How about 10 dimes adding up to $1.00 and 10 nickels adding up to 50 cents, that’s $1.50 which is more than $1.40. There’s more than one answer to this question.
Nice approach, Lu. Get all the facts first! :D
12 nickels = 60, plus 8 dimes = 80, so 20 coins = $1.40. If it has to be more than $1.40, then 11 nickels plus 9 dimes = $1.45.
Doesn’t she need to know the dates of the coins?
The simplest answer is 14 dimes.
I don’t care …
And what COLOR is the purse?
There some dimes.
11 dimes, 8 nickles.
The devil is in the details.
