First compute the whole number of the possibilities :
10*9=90.
Compute the number of favorable possibilities:
There is 5 even numbers. Once we pick an even number,
we pick 5. So the number of the favorable possibilities is 5.
Now we compute the probability like this:
Answer:
The answer is D. 18 + (-7)
Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.
As per given,
x+y = 205 ...(i)
0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii) [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]
Multiply (ii) by 20, we get
x+5y=637 ...(iii)
Eliminate (i) from (iii)
4y = 432
⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]
Put value of y in (i), we get

Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
It represents 1/2, 50% or half of the equation.
it’s also the numerator, tells how many pieces you have from the whole.
