i think it would be 4/15 because science is 6/15 and fiction is 5/15

The way I would do this problem would be to find a common denominator for both of the fractions.

5/15

6/15

And then we can find out how many books there are left.

5/15 + 6/15 is 11/15

11/15 books are about science and biography, the other 4/15 are fiction.

11 pounds 13 ounces = ounces
lawyer [7]
1 pound = 16 ounces so let's go ahead and convert 11 pounds to ounces by multiplying by 16. 11×16=176 and then add 13 to that 176+13=189

so 12 pounds and 13 ounces= 189 ounces

Clark has a box of nickels and dimes that totals $1.90. there are a total of 27 coins. how many nickels and dimes does he have?
Andrej [43]
$0.05(n) + $0.10(d) = $1.90
n + d = 27
n + d - d =27 - d
n = 27 - d

$0.05(27-d) + $0.10(d) = $1.90
1.35 - 0.05d + 0.10d = $1.90
1.35 +0.05d = $1.90
1.35 - 1.35 +0.05d = $1.90 -1.35
0.05d = 0.55
0.05d/0.05 = 0.55/0.05
d = 11

n = 27 - 11
n = 16

$0.05(16) + $0.10(11) = $1.90
$0.80 + $1.10 = $1.90
$1.90 = $1.90
