    Julian has 16 dimes and 6 quarters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let's suppose Julian has q quarters and d dimes

    The total coins are 22, that is

    q+d=22

    q=22-d [1]

    The total amount of money he has is 310 cents which are made of 10d dimes and 25q quarters

    10d+25q=310

    Simplifying by 5

    2d+5q=62

    Using the relation [1]

    2d+5 (22-d) = 62

    2d+110-5d=62

    3d=48 = > d=16

    q=22-16 = 6

    So Julian has 16 dimes and 6 quarters
