Jose is working the register and runs out of dimes and quarters. He needs to give a customer 67¢ worth of change. He gives the customer 2¢. How many nickels must he now give the customer to provide the correct change?

Respuesta :

So Jose already gave 2 out of 67 cents of change to the customer, or:

67-2 - 65.

Nickels are worth 5 cents each, so all you gotta do now is divide 65 by 5 to get the number of nickels Jose still needs to give:

65/5 = 13

Jose needs to give the customer 13 nickels to provide the correct amount of change :)
