AMC10 2004 10B, Problem 7

On a trip from the United States to Canada, Isabella took $d$ U.S. dollars. At the border she exchanged them all, receiving $10$ Canadian dollars for every $7$ U.S. dollars. After spending $60$ Canadian dollars, she had $d$ Canadian dollars left. What is the sum of the digits of $d$?

Solution: Isabella had $60+d$ Canadian dollars. Setting up an equation we get $d=\frac{7}{10}\cdot(60+d)$, which solves to $d=140$, and the sum of digits of $d$ is $\fbox{5}$.

Answer: 5
