10D + 25Q = 850 and D = 55 - Q
Substitute: 10(55 - Q) + 25Q = 850
ie 550 - 10Q + 25Q = 850
ie 15Q = 300
so Q = 20, making D = 35

The coins in the store's cash register total $12.50. The cash register contains only nickels, dimes, and quarters. There are twice as many dimes as nickels. There are also twice as many quarters as dimes. How many quarters are in the cash register?
If 5 dimes to every 8 quarters that is 5 out of every 13 coins dimes and 8 of 13 coins quarters 5/13 x 520 = 200 dimes
where x=number of quarters, and 110-x=number of dimes (because the number of dimes is 110 minus the number of quarters): .25(x) + .10(110-x) = 18.50 .25x + 11 - .10x = 18.50 .25x - .10x = 7.50 .15x = 7.50 x = 50 50 quarters, 60 dimes
dimes : all coins = 6 : 12+6+18 = 6 : 36 = 1×6 : 6×6 = 1 : 6 Dimes are ⅙ of all coins.
16 % of the coins are dimes. 4 of a total of 25.
