You have 2 coins that add up to 30 cents. One is NOT a nickel. What are the two coins?
A
Two nickels
B
A dime and two pennies
C
A quarter and a nickel
D
Three dimes
💡 Correct Answer:
A quarter and a nickel
ℹ️ Explanation:
A quarter (25¢) + a nickel (5¢) = 30¢. ONE coin is not a nickel — the quarter isn't. But the OTHER one IS a nickel. Reread: 'one is NOT a nickel' ≠ 'neither is a nickel.'
