n = 8.15
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 is 4 & 3/5 % of what number?
Rewrite this as: 3/8 is (4 3/5)% of what number?
Convert 4 3/5% into a decimal: 0.046
Then write out and solve the equation 3/8 = 0.046n, where n is the unknown number.
Dividing both sides by 0.046, we get n = 8.15
Let, the speed of boat = x
Speed of current = y
So, x + y = 280/7
x + y = 40 ---- first equation
x - y = 280/14
x - y = 20
x = 20 + y
Substitute this value of x in first equation,
20 + y + y = 40
2y = 40 - 20
y = 20/2
y = 10
Substitute this in first equation,
x + 10 = 40
x = 30
In short, Speed of Boat = 30 mph, & speed of current = 10 mph

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the number of dimes Molly has. Then she has 18-d nickels, and the total value (in cents) of her coins is ...
5(18 -d) +10d = 105
5d +90 = 105 . . . . . . simplify
5d = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 90
d = 3 . . . . . . . . divide by 5; number of dimes
18-d = 15 . . . . . number of nickels
Molly has 3 dimes and 15 nickels.
