Answer:

A- 480

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I'm going to work out 25% of 1200 for the before 1980 pennies.

10% = 120

20% = 240

5% = 60

240 + 60 = 300 pennies before 1980.

Next, work out 35% of 1200 instead.

20% = 240

+ 10%

30% = 360

+ 5% = 60

35% = 420 pennies from 1980-2000

Finally, work out how many pennies are leftover.

300 + 420 = 720

1200 - 720 = 480

A is the answer.

Hope this helps and have a good day!
