Question

London has $154 she has 14 one dollar bills. The rest is in ten dollars Bill's. How many ten dollar Bill's does she have?

Answer 1

So lets start off with what we know. She had $154, and of that, $14 are in one dollar bills.

Next lets subtract $14 from $154 because we know that those are just ones.

We are left with $140. Divide this by 10, becuase we need to know how many ten dollar bills she has.

140/10=14.

She has 14 ten dollar bills.
