Darius Osborn · Answer 1

Well, one nickel is worth 5 cents.

If you add the nickels, like this:

5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=65, then you have the additional 2 cents, 65+2=67.

To make it easier, 5*13+2 = 67

Your answer is 13.

Seth Beltran · Answer 2

Well, 62-2 is 65, so Jose needs to give hims 65 cents. If we divide 65 by 5, because he only has nickels, we get 13. So Jose needs to give the coustomer 13 nickels.
