And the number of quarters be

Thus, the number of nickels and quarters he found:

⇒ .........( 1 )

The totaled of nickels and quarters:

(As 1 nickel=$0.05 and 1 quarter=$0.25)

Now, putting the equation ( 1 ) in the place of we get:

⇒

⇒

Subtracting both sides by 1 we get:

⇒

⇒

So, the quarters = 8.

Therefore, David find 8 quarters.
