Answer:

78 nickels and 22 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels = n, Dimes = d

Number of coins = 100

  • n + d = 100

Total sum in the piggy bank = $6.60

  • 5n + 10d = 660

Consider the first equation in the second:

  • 5(100 -d) + 10d = 660
  • 500 - 5d + 10d = 660
  • 5d = 110
  • d = 110/5
  • d = 22
  • n = 100 - 22
  • n = 78

Answer: nickels 78 and dimes 22
