Kate has 2 dollars, 3 quarters, and 1 nickel. How much money does Kate have?

Answer 1

To find out how much money Kate has, we can add up the values of each type of coin and cash:

• 2 dollars = \(2 \times 1 = 2\) dollars
• 3 quarters = \(3 \times 0.25 = 0.75\) dollars
• 1 nickel = \(1 \times 0.05 = 0.05\) dollars

Now, let's sum them up:

\[ 2 + 0.75 + 0.05 = 2.80 \]

So, Kate has a total of $2.80.
