I’m helping my kid with a math problem and need to know how many nickels make up 2 dollars. Can someone break it down simply?
 
There are 40 nickels in 2 dollars because each nickel is worth 5 cents, and 2 dollars equal 200 cents. Dividing 200 by 5 gives 40 nickels.
 
There are 40 nickels in $2. Since each nickel is worth 5 cents, divide 200 cents (=$2) by 5 cents per nickel. Simple math:

200÷5=40
