Andrew has a certain number of coins in his pocket. He has three times as many dimes as quarters and six times as many nickels as dimes. A nickel is worth $0.05, a dime is worth $0.10 and a quarter is worth $0.25. If he has a total of $10.15, then which of the following represents the number of dimes in Nickles’s pocket?  Choose the most appropriate option.
A) 9	B) 10	C) 18	D) 112	E) 116
E.   Let number of quarters be q. Therefore , dimes are 3q and nickels are 18q.   Total value = 18q(.05) + 3q(0.1) + .25q =1.45q   Given total value = 10.15   therefore, 1.45q=10.15 or q=7   Number of dimes = 18q or 116   Answer : 116
