Leroy Kidd · Answer 1

Melissa spent $1.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Each quarter is 25 cents. If you have 5 quarters, that would be 25 times 5. And each nickel is 5 cents, so if you have 13 nickels, then you would multiply 5 by 13. Then to get the total amount spent you would have to add the quarters and nickels. which would be 125 and 65. Every 100 is a dollar. so it would be 190, or $1.90.
