Question

Ricardo has 2020 coins, some of which are pennies (1-cent coins) and the rest of which are nickels (5-cent coins). He has at least one penny and at least one nickel. What is the difference in cents between the greatest possible and least possible amounts of money that Ricardo can have?

Answer 1

Answer:

8072

Step-by-step explanation:

2019 pennies + 1 nickel =

2019 + 5 =

2024

2019 nickels + 1 penny =

(2019 *5) + 1 =

10095 + 1 =

10096

10096 - 2024 = 8072
