In which situation is it more likely that Marissa will draw a nickel

Answer 1

Answer:

As a fraction it's ¼, as a decimal it's 0.25 and as a percentage it's 25%

Answer 2

Answer:

= 1/5

.2

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the bag there are 5 pennies, 4 nickels , 5 dimes, 2 quarters

We add 1 penny 2 dimes and 1 quarter

Now in the bag

6 pennies, 4 nickels, 7 dimes, 3 quarters

for a total of 20 coins

P ( nickel) = number of nickels / total

                 = 4/20 = 1/5

                  .2

                   20%

She is more likely to draw a nickel before the 1 penny 2 dimes and 1 quarter because there are fewer coins in the bag that are not nickels
