Gloria has five times as many dimes as quarters in her graduation money. She decides to put 2/5 of the quarters aside for future use. If she has 350 dimes, calculate the combined number of quarters and dimes she has after putting aside 2/5 of the quarters?
If the number of dimes is 20 times the number of quarters, she has 350/5 = 70 quarters.
When she puts 2/5 of the quarters away, the number of quarters reduces by 2/5*70 = 28
She's now left with 70-28 = 42 quarters.
In total, she has 42 quarters + 350 dimes = 392
