Ja'Kiree has a bunch of quarters and nickels in her piggy bank totaling $8.75. If Ja'Kiree has 26 quarters, how many nickels does she have?

Start off by stating your facts. You have a maximum of $8.75. We know that each quarter is 25 cents so we multiply 25x26 equaling 650. Yet we need a decimal so it would be $6.50. Each nickel is worth 5 cents so then you would minus $8.75 and $6.50 getting us to $2.25. Now divide it by 5 cents and you should get 45 nickels. You can also do this by stating that 10 nickels is 50 cents and go until you get 45

Two because two of one thing is two.
