Haylee Perkins · Answer 1

Well, 62-2 is 65, so Jose needs to give hims 65 cents. If we divide 65 by 5, because he only has nickels, we get 13. So Jose needs to give the coustomer 13 nickels.

Hebert · Answer 2

Well, one nickel is worth 5 cents.

If you add the nickels, like this:

5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5=65, then you have the additional 2 cents, 65+2=67.

To make it easier, 5*13+2 = 67

Your answer is 13.
