So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?
So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20
So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.
So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.
So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.
4.80/0.15 = 32
So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.
Answer: JL = 25
Step-by-step explanation: Segment JM is the total measure of the line segment and it equals 45.
Suppose first segment JK measures d.
The total ratio is the sum of each part
d + 4d + 4d = 9d
The sum of each part corresponds to the total measure of the line segment. Then:
9d = 45
d = 5
Segment JL is
JL = d + 4d
JL = 5d
JL = 5.5
JL = 25
Segment JL measures 25 units.
