The solution is, Sam has 5 dimes and 7 quarters.
An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign. In its simplest form in algebra, the definition of an equation is a mathematical statement that shows that two mathematical expressions are equal.
here, we have,
Sam has $2.25 in quarters and dimes, and the total number of coins is 12.
let, Sam has n₁ dimes and n₂ quarters.
then, we have,
n₁*$0.10 + n₂*$0.25 = $2.25
and, we have,
n₁ + n₂ = 12
This means that:
n₁ = 12 - n₂
And:
(12 - n₂)*$0.10 + n₂*$0.25 = $2.25
12*$0.10 - n₂*$0.10 + n₂*$0.25 = $2.25
$1.20 + n₂*$0.05*(5-2) = $2.25
$1.20 + n₂*$0.05*3 = $2.25
$1.20 + n₂*$0.15 = $2.25
n₂*$0.15 = $2.25 - $1.20
n₂*$0.15 = $1.05
n₂ = ($1.05)/($0.15)
n₂ = 7
If n₂ = 7:
n₁ + 7 = 12
Therefore, n₁ = 5.
Answer:
5 dimes and 7 quarters.

The solution to the given mathematical problem is found by using thedistributive property to break down 36 into its component parts (30 and 6), then dividing each part by 3, yielding the answer of 12.
The question is framing a scenario where we need to use the distributive property to simplify a division operation. The distributive property deals with multiplying a number by a sum or difference, in essence 'distributing' the multiplication over addition or subtraction.
So the division 36 ÷ 3 could be set up using the distributive property like (3×10) + (3×2) by breaking down 36 into a sum like 30 + 6.
So, 36 ÷ 3 = (3 x 10 + 2) ÷ 3 Applying the distributive property, we distribute the division operation over the addition. = (30 ÷ 3 + 6 ÷ 3) = 10 + 2 = 12
