Answer:

I believe the answer would be six rooms

Step-by-step explanation: This may seem a little difficult, but really it is quite simple. All you have to do is divide the amount of paint she has (9) by how much it takes to paint one room (1 1/2). The equation would be,            (9 / 1 1/2) which equals 6. I hope this helps.

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, divide 9 by 1 1/2.

To make this easier to divide, convert 1 1/2 into an improper fraction.

1 1/2 = 3/2

Dividing 9 by 3/2 is the same as multiplying 9 by 2/3

Multiply the numerators and denominators

[9 is the same as 9/1]

9 x 2 = 18

1 x 3 = 3

18/3 = 6

So, Emma can paint 6 rooms.

I hope this helps!

James has a bag 77 of nickels and dimes. The total value of coins is $6.60. How many dimes does James have?
tatuchka [14]

James has 55 dimes in the bag

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • James has in a bag 77 of nickels and dimes
  • The total value of coins is $6.60

We need to find how many dimes James has

Assume that the number of nickels is x and the number of

dimes is y in the bag

∵ There are x nickels in the bag

∵ There are y dimes in the bag

∵ There are 77 coins in the bag

∴ x + y = 77 ⇒ (1)

∵ 1 nickel = 5 cents

∴ The value of nickles in the bag = 5x cents

∵ 1 dime = 10 cents

∴ The value of dimes in the bag = 10y cents

∵ The total value of coins is $6.60

∵ 1 dollar = 100 cents

∴ $6.60 = 6.60 × 100 = 660 cents

∴ 5x + 10y = 660 ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Multiply equation (1) by -10 to eliminate y

∵ -10x - 10y = -770 ⇒ (3)

- Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ -5x = -110

- Divide both sides by -5

∴ x = 22

Substitute the value of x in equation (2) to find y

∵ 22 + y = 77

- Subtract 22 from both sides

∴ y = 55

∴ The number of dimes is 55

James has 55 dimes in the bag
