Answer:
4 ÷ 6/9 is also equal to 4 x 9/6. This is because when you divide by a fraction, you change the division sign to multiply and reverse the numerator and the denominator of the fraction. For example, if x/y was a fraction, it would become y/x. THIS IS ONLY DURING DIVISION!
So, we now that 4 ÷ 6/9 is equal to 4 x 9/6. 4 x 9/6 = (4x9)/6 = 36/6 = 6.
The answer is -3.9364916731.
Answer:
9 Quarters
8 Dimes
3 Nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
We let the number of quarters be q
number of dimes be d
and
number of nickels be n
Since quarters are worth 0.25, dimes are worth 0.10 and nickels are worth 0.05 and total worth is 3.20, we can write an equation as:
0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n = 3.20
Next,
3 times as many quarters as Nickels, we can write:
q = 3n
and
5 more dimes than nickel, we can write:
d = n + 5
Substituting these last 2 equations in the first and solving for n gives us:
0.25q + 0.10d + 0.05n = 3.20
0.25(3n) + 0.10(n+5) + 0.05n = 3.20
0.75n + 0.10n +0.5 + 0.05n = 3.20
0.9n = 2.70
n = 2.70/0.9 = 3
n = 3
We know q = 3n, so
q = 3(3) = 9
Also, we know d = n + 5, which means:
d = 3 + 5 = 8
Thus,
There are:
9 Quarters
8 Dimes
3 Nickels
