Professor quantum has two coins which total 35 cents. since one of the coins is not a dime, what are the two coins

Respuesta :

So, there are 1, 5, 10, 25 and 50 cent coins.

The most logical combination would be a dime and a quarter (10 + 25 = 35) but it is said that "one of the coins is not a dime".

But, there is something many people don't notice. It says that one of the coins isn't a dime, but the other one can be a dime. So, the two coins are a quarter and a dime.


Hope it helped,
