Sandra has a bag of quarters and dimes in it there are 32 quarters there are eight times as many corners as dimes how many dimes are in the bag

1 answer

Let's denote the number of dimes as \( d \).

According to the problem, there are 32 quarters and it states that there are eight times as many quarters as dimes. This can be expressed as:

\[ 32 = 8d \]

To find the number of dimes \( d \), we can solve this equation:

\[ d = \frac{32}{8} = 4 \]

Thus, there are \( 4 \) dimes in the bag.
