The probability that the card chosen will not be green is 5/7
So, you have to have your equation in terms of dimes. What you said about what he has: four more nickels than dimes in his pocket. Will help with our equation.
We know what a nickel and dime is worth. A nickel is .05 and a dime is .1
We don't know how many dimes are in his pocket, since we're trying to solve it.
.1x+(4+x).05=1.25;
In the parenthesis, it shows how there are four more nickels. Let's solve it now.
.1x + (4+x).05=1.25
.1x + .2+ .05x = 1.25; Let's add like terms.
.15x + .2 = 1.25; Subtract .2 from both sides.
.15x= 1.05
1.05÷.15= 7 =x
There are 7 dimes in his pocket, let's check our answer.
We now know there are 11 nickels, since there are four more nickels than dimes.
11(.05) +.1(7) = 1.25
.55+ .7 = 1.25
Now that we've tried it, we know there are 7 dimes in his pocket.

Answer:
4.41/ 3 = 1.47 each
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this, find the square root of 16. 4 x 4 is 16. So one side of the square is 4 units.
It depends on the problem really. One example is that you drive 10 miles in 2 hours. So you divide the distance over time to get 10/2 = 5. This means you drove 5 miles per hour (mph). The unit rate for this example is 5 mph.
