How to make 75 cents with out using a half dollar or pennies
How about quarters?
Or/and nickels?
7 dimes and a nickel
To make 75 cents without using a half dollar or pennies, you can use a combination of other coins. The simplest way is to use the following coins:
- Two quarters (valued at 25 cents each)
- Two dimes (valued at 10 cents each)
- One nickel (valued at 5 cents)
Here's how you can get this answer on your own:
1. Start by understanding the value of each coin:
- A quarter is worth 25 cents.
- A dime is worth 10 cents.
- A nickel is worth 5 cents.
- A penny is worth 1 cent.
2. List all the available coins in your pocket, purse, or wallet.
3. Begin by combining the highest-value coins (quarters) to reach or get as close as possible to 75 cents. In this case, two quarters amount to 50 cents.
4. Since you cannot use pennies, look for other lower-value coins to complete the remaining 25 cents. At this point, the available options are dimes and nickels.
5. By combining two dimes, you reach 20 cents.
6. To add the final 5 cents, incorporate a nickel.
7. Now you have a total of 75 cents by using two quarters, two dimes, and one nickel.
Remember, experimenting with different combinations is key, and depending on the coins you have, you may find alternative ways to make 75 cents.
