    10d+5n=220

    divide both sides by 5

    2d+n=44

    d=13+n

    sub 13+n for d in other equatin

    2 (13+n) + n=44

    26+2n+n=44

    26+3n=44

    minus 26 both sides

    3n=18

    divide both sides by 3

    n=6

    sub back

    d=13+n

    d=13+6

    d=19

    19 dimes

    6 nickles
