We have
1.234 in-----> 1+(0.234) in
we know that
1/64=0.015625
so
0.234/0.015625=14.98-----> 15
15/64-----> 0.234
therefore
1.234 in is equal to -----------> 1 15/64 in
the answer is
1 15/64 in
Let X = the number of pennies.
The number of nickels would be 2X
A penny is 0.01 and a nickel is 0.05
Now you have:
0.01x + 2(0.05x) = 8.80
Simplify:
0.01x + 0.10x = 8.80
Combine like terms:
0.11x = 8.80
Divide both sides by 0.11:
x = 8.80 / 0.11
x = 80
Pennies = X = 80 total pennies.
Nickels = 2x = 2 *80 = 160 nickels.
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you mean (1/4)(4x - 24), we simplify this to obtain:
x - 6 + x = 14
Combining like terms, we get:
2x = 20. Then x = 20/2, or x = 10
The answer is 10, so it would be C
