Answer:

Hope it helps ..and ☆HAPPY New year MY DEAR ☆

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of half dollars be x,

number of quarters = x + 2

amount of half dollars = 0.5x

amount of quarters = 0.25(x + 2)

= 0.25x + 0.5

total amount = 0.5x + 0.25x + 0.5

= 0.75x + 0.5

0.75x + 0.5 = 11.75

0.75x = 11.25

x = 15

number of quarters = x + 2

= 15 + 2

= 17

There are 17 quarters and 15 half dolla
