The amount in dollars that Mr. Douglas saved during the 2 months of July and August are $49.00 (63 + 133)/4.

Quarters v. Dollars

A quarter of a dollar is $0.25 ($1.00/4).  There are four quarters in a dollar. The system of equation for this problem can be solved by adding up the quarters Mr. Douglas saved in July and August and dividing the sum by 4 or multiplying it by $0.25.

Thus, in July and August, by saving 63 quarters and 133 quarters respectively, Mr. Douglas saved $49.00.
