    Let q be the no. of quarters and d be the no. of dimes.

    q+d=128
    25q+10d=2510

    These are the system of equations. To solve it, we do this:

    q=128-d
    25(128-d)+10d=2510
    3200-25d+10d=2510
    15d=690
    d=46
    q=128-46=82

    Answer:

    .25q+.10d=25.10

    q+d=128

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since a quarter is 25 cents and a dime is 10 cents that is how you figure out your first equation. You set it equal to 25.10 because that is the amount of money it totals to. The second equation (q+d=128) is used because the amount of quarters plus dimes needs to make 128.
