Answer:

Taylor has 14 Nickels and 7 Quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

A nickel is equivalent to 5 cent while a quarter is equivalent to 25 cents.

If the number of nickels Taylor has is 2x then the number of quarters is x

Given that the total value is 245 cents,

5(2x) + 25x = 245

10x + 25x = 245

35x = 245

x = 7, 2x = 2 × 7 = 14

It means Taylor has 14 Nickels and 7 Quarters
