Quarters = 25 cents
Nickles = 5 cents.
This means that x quarters are 25*x = 25x cents.
x + 32 nickles will be 5*(x + 32) = 5(x + 32) cents.
This is why 25x = 5(x + 32)
25x = 5x + 160
20x = 160
x = 8.

I didn't know this concept of nickles and quarters. What's the source of the question? Is such questions expected in GMAT?
Each soul is potentially divine. The goal is to manifest this divine within.

These are the coin question, I were practicing it from my GMAT book.

Nickle = 5
quarter = 25
dime = 10
