Question

Miriam has a jar of one dollar bills, dimes, and pennies in her closet. If she has a total of 963 cents, which combination
would be less money than she has?

A.9 one dollar bills, 50 dimes, and 1 penny.
B.900 one dollar bills, 3 dimes, and 8 pennies
C.9 one dollar bills, 5 dimes, and 6 pennies
D.900 one dollar bills, 60 dimes, and 2 pennies

Answer 1

Answer:C

Step-by-step explanation:

Every 100 cent is a dollar. She has 963 cent so that is 9 dollars. 5 dimes is 50 pennies then you have the other 6 pennies which makes a total of $9.56. So it’s less than the original amount of $9.63
