Solution
The correct option is C 487 Given, Stacy has four hundred and seventy-two coins in her piggy bank.
Number of coins Stacy has = 4 hundreds + 7 tens + 2 ones = 472
Also, she collects 5 coins each from 3 of her friends.
So, additional number of coins = 5 + 5 + 5 = 15
Total number of coins Stacy has = 472 + 15
472 + 15 = 487
Thus, Stacy has 487 coins in total.
