<span>As you have two fractions, you can cross multiply them. This gives: x/a = y/b to ay = xb. Then divide both sides by b to isolate x: ay/b = x.</span>

Marcos had 15 coins in nickels and quarters. He had 3 more quarters than nickels. He wrote a system of equations to represent th
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There are 6 coins in nickels and 9 coins in quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, to find the solution.

According to question:

The number of nickels = x.

The number of quarters = y.

So, the total number of coins:

x+y=15.

He had 3 more quarters than nickels.

Thus,

y=x+3 .....(1)

Now, to get the solution:

x+y=15

Substituting the equation (1):

x+(x+3)=15

x+x+3=15

2x+3=15

<em>Subtracting both sides by 3 we get:</em>

<em />2x=12<em />

<em>Dividing both sides by 2 we get:</em>

x=6.

<em>The number of nickels = 6.</em>

Now, substituting the value of x in equation (1):

y=x+3\\\\y=6+3\\\\y=9.

<em>The number of quarters = 9.</em>

Thus, there are 6 coins in nickels and 9 coins in quarters.
