Question

Every quarter is 5 nickels. This can be expressed using the equation y × 5 = Z, where y is equal to the number of quarter's and Z is equal to the total number of nickels. Using the equation find the total nickels in 7 quarter's.____ nickels

Answer 1

Given the equation:

$y\text{ }\ast\text{ 5 = Z}$

Also,

1 quater = 5 nickels

where y represents the number of quaters and Z represents the total number of nickels.

To find the total nickels in 7 quaters, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 7\text{ }\ast\text{ 5 = Z} \\ \\ 35\text{ = Z} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the total nickels in 7 quaters is 35 nickels

ANSWER:

35 nickels
