Answer:
B. 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve this by setting up system of equations:
0.25x + 0.10y = 3.95
x + y = 20
x equals the number of quarters and y equals the number of dimes. 0.25 is the value of a quarter and 0.10 is the value of a dime.
1. Multiply one equation to have the same coefficient as the other
0.10 · (x + y = 20) = 0.10x + 0.10y = 2
2. Subtract to find the value of one variable
0.25x + 0.10y = 3.95
<u>- 0.10x + 0.10y = 2</u>
0.15x = 1.95
3. Solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.15
x = 13
So he started with 3/4 lb and ended up with 2/3 of that so 2/3 of 3/4
'of' can be roughly translated as multiply
so 2/3 times 3/4 =6/12=1/2 lb left
or you know that there are 3 out of 4 parts pound left so 2 out of 3 parts of nuts is = 2/4 or 1/2 lb
