<span>A quarter is equivalent to 25 cents or $0.25 and a nickel is equal to 5 cents or $0.05. In the given in this item, if there are x nickels then, there are x + 7 quarters. With these and the total amount known, we can now compute for the value of x.
(x)(0.05) + (x + 7)(0.25) = 2.65
Simplifying,
0.05x + 0.25x + 1.75 = 2.65
Simplifying further,
0.3x = 0.9
The value of x from the equation is 3. Hence, there are 10 quarters.</span>
Answer: x= 1/54
Explained: easy mental math :p
Answer:

The answer to question 34:
Let 'x' = pounds of gravel. The ratio of mulch to gravel is given 2 1/4 | 1 1/3. Which equals 9/4 | 4/3 = 27/16.
So the total gravel and much is equal to x + 27/16x = 172
Solving for 'x'
43/16 x = 172
x = 172 (16/43) = 64 pounds of gravel Mulch = 27/16x = 64 (27/16)= 108 pounds
