The ratio of quarters to dimes is not still 5 : 3
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that ratio of quarters to dimes in a coin collection is 5:3 .
You add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection .
Need to check if ratio of quarters to dimes is still 5 : 3
As ratio of dimes and quarters is 5 : 3
lets assume initially number of quarters = 5x and number of dimes = 3x.
Now add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection
Let add "x" number of quarters and "x" number of dimes
So After adding,
Number of quarters = initially number of quarters + added number of quarters = 5x + x = 6x
Number of dimes = initially number of dimes + added number of dimes
= 3x + x = 4x
New ratio of quarters to dimes is 6x : 4x = 3 : 2
So we have seen here ratio get change when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection
Ratio get change from 5 : 3 when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection and new ratio will depend on number of quarters and dimes added to collection.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
let's say, 7 - 4 = 3
that contradicts the statement that both numbers are odd.
no, they are 7, 4, with 4 being even (and not odd).
in fact, as with sums and subtractions in general, it requires an odd and an even number to produce an odd result.
odd with odd always delivers an even result. as does even with even.
To get heads: 1/2 because there are two sides to a coin.
There are 6 sides on a cube and 2 numbers are greater than 4 (5 and 6) so 2/6
Now multiply: 1/2 * 2/6 = 2/12 = 1/6
1/6 is the final answer.
