Tyler has a total of one hundred ninety-two coins. He has three times as many quarters as nickels and one-half as many nickels as pennies. How much money does he have?
Let the number of pennies ==P
Then, number of nickels ==1/2P
The numbers of quarters ==3 x 1/2P ==1.5P
P + 1/2P + 1.5P ==192
3P ==192 and P ==192 / 3 ==64 - number of pennies he has.
64 / 2 ==32 nickels he has
32 x 3 ==96 quarters he has.
[64 x 0.01] + [32 x 0.05] + [96 x 0.25] ==$0.64 + $1.60 + $24 ==$26.24 - amount of money Tyler has.
