    Answer:

    Dimes:    200

    Quarters:     320

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Construct a table as follows

    Item          Dimes          Quarters          Total

    Ratio         5                  8                       13

    Actual       d                  q                       520

    Note that any two ratios of corresponding quantities are the same.

    (d/5)=(520/13)=40

    d=200

    (q/8)=(520/13)=40

    q=320
