A nickel is equal to 5 cents or 0.05 dollars.
A quarter is equal to 25 cents or 0.25 dollars.
Let number of nickels be = n
Let number of quarters be = q
...........(1)
As it is given, there are 3 more nickels than quarters so equation becomes,
................(2)
Plug in the value of 'n' from (2) in (1)

= 


As
we get, 
Hence, there are 12 nickels and 9 quarters.
A basket contains 12 apples and some other fruit
40% of the total fruit are apples...so 40% of the total fruit is 12..
0.40x = 12....with x being the total fruit in the basket <== ur equation
x = 12 / 0.40
x = 30....and u have 30 pieces of fruit in the basket
6/14
Multiply both 3 and 7 by 2, this gives you equivalent fractions (there are more possible equivalent equations of course)
Answer:
1 / 2704
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of cards in a deck = 52
9 of clubs in a deck = 1
10 of clubs in a deck = 1
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
P(9 of club) = 1 / 52
With replacement ;
Then ;
P(10 of club) = 1 / 52
Hence,
P(9 of club, then 10 of club) = 1/52 * 1/52 = 1 / 2704
