Ahmad Conan deposited 60 quarters, 53 dimes, 44 nickels, and 50 pennies into his checking account. The total of the checks he deposited equaled $17 less than twice his total deposit. If Ahmad received 2 twenty-dollar bills in cash, what was his total deposit?

Respuesta :

Answer:

40 $

Step-by-step explanation:

He first deposited 60 quarters=15$, 53 dimes=5.3$, 44 nickels=2.2$, and 50 pennies=0.5$ Total 23$

23$+17$=2*(total deposit)

so total deposit = 20

"If Ahmad received 2 twenty-dollar bills in cash" - does not mean that he deposited those 40$

so total deposit = 20$
