Calculate Total: 8 Ten-Cent and 5 Five-Cent Coins to Euros

Question

Edward has 8 coins worth 10 cents each and 5 coins worth 5 cents each.
How much money does he have in total, expressed in euros?

Step-by-Step Solution

First, let's calculate how many euros are 8 ten- cents coins:

8×10=80 8\times10=80

Since one euro has 100 cents, 80 cents equals 0.8 euros

Now let's calculate how many are 5 five-cent coins:

5×5=25 5\times5=25

Since one euro has 100 cents, 25 cents equals 0.25 euros

Finally, let's add the amounts of euros together:

0.8+0.25=1.05 0.8+0.25=1.05

Edward has one euro and 5 cents, meaning: 1.05 euros in total

Answer

1.05 1.05
