Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If all 21 coins were dimes, she'd have $2.10. But she has 90 more cents than that. Now for each coin that's a quarter, not a dime, she has 15 cents more. 90/15= 6. So there are 6 quarters, and 21-6 = 15 dimes.
Now we do it backwards to see if it's right. 6 quarters is $1.50, 15 dimes is $1.50, add those together and you get $3. So it's right. 6 quarters, 15 dimes.

Answer:
2/14, 4/28, 5/35, 7/70 or just 2/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/7 by 2, to get 2/14, or 2:14
And multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/7 by 3, to get 3/21, or 3:21. So 2:14 and 3:21 are two ratios that are equal to 1:7.
Cross multiply or just multiply both sides by 24
24x/6=36
4x=36
divide both sides by 4
x=9
