If we let Q be the number of quarters and N be number of nickels, this is the formula we would use:
[1] 25Q + 5N = 635 (using cents instead of dollars)
We also know something about Q and N.
[2] Q + N = 51
So multiply both sides of the second equation by 5. The reason we do this is because we're going to need to cancel out one of the variables (either Q or N) to solve for the other one. If we multiply times 5, we'll have 5N in both equations.
5Q + 5N = 255
Now we have two equations, and the second one can be subtracted from the first.
25Q + 5N = 635
-(5Q + 5N) = -255
---------------------
20Q = 380
so
Q = 19
There are 19 quarters.
And since there are 51 coins in all, 51-19 = 32 nickels.
Use 5 as the lowest common factor and you gt 3/20
Answer:
0.14
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Grade A = 5
Grade B = 10
Grade C = 15
Grade D = 3
Grade F = 2
Sample space (S) = 35
Probability of getting grade A, P(A) =?
The probability that a student obtained a grade of A can be obtained as follow:
Probability of getting grade A, P(A) =
Event of A (nA) / Sample space, (nS)
P(A) = nA/nS
P(A) = 5/35
P(A) = 0.14
Thus, probability that a student obtained a grade of A is 0.14
