Answer:

The question is asking which numbers are larger with respect to one another. An easy way to do this is to convert to decimals, or just memorize it. 1/2=0.5, 3/4=0.75, 2/3=0.666666. So descending order (largest to smallest) 3/4, 2/3, 1/2.

Maribel has $1.25 in her pocket. The money is in quarters and dimes. There are a total of 8 coins. How many quarters and dimes d

Temka [501]

0.25q + 0.10d = 1.25
q + d = 8....q = 8 - d

0.25(8 - d) + 0.10d = 1.25
2 - 0.25d + 0.10d = 1.25
-0.25d + 0.10d = 1.25 - 2
-0.15d = - 0.75
d = -0.75/-0.15
d = 5 <=== there are 5 dimes

q + d = 8
q + 5 = 8
q = 8 - 5
q = 3 <=== there are 3 quarters
