32 students choose a favorite topping for their slices.

Let x be the total number of students.

1/2 of the total students, or 1/2x, choose pepperoni.
1/4 of the total students, or 1/4x, choose extra cheese.
1/8 of the total students, or 1/8x, choose sausage.
4 students choose mushrooms.

We know that together, these equal the total number of students, x:
1/2x+1/4x+1/8x+4=x

We will use 8 as the common denominator:
4/8x+2/8x+1/8x+4=x


Combining like terms:
7/8x+4=x

Subtract 7/8x from both sides:
7/8x+4-7/8x=x-7/8x
4=1x-7/8x
4=1/8x

Divide both sides by 1/8:
4÷(1/8) = 1/8x÷(1/8)
4/1÷(1/8) = x
4/1×8/1 = x
32/1 = x
32 = x

Can someone help me asapp !!!!
Doss [256]

Answer:

he has 10 type of each coin

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cents in possession is calculated as;

= 25 + 10 + 5

= 40 cent

Total amount in possession = $4

                                               = 400 cent

Since he has equal number of each cent, let this equal number be "y";

40cent (y) = 400cent

40y = 400

divide both sides by 40

\frac{40y}{40} = \frac{400}{40} \\\\y = 10

Therefore, he has 10 type of each coin
