Answer:
Joel had 120 dimes and 80 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Joel had 200 coins, which were dimes and quarters, and the total value was $ 32, to determine how many coins of each type he had, the following calculation must be performed:
0.25 - 0.10 = 0.15
200 x 0.10 = 20
32 - 20 = 12
12 / 0.15 = 80
200 - 80 = 120
(80 x 0.25) + (120 x 0.1) = X
20 + 12 = X
32 = X
Thus, Joel had 120 dimes and 80 quarters.
