A collection of dimes and nickels is worth $5.60. The ratio of dimes to nickels is 3:2. How many dimes and how many nickels are
PolarNik [594]
Now, the nickels and dimes are at ratio of 3:2.  However, the total amount is in dollars.  So let's convert all amounts to pennies then.

$5.60 is just 560 pennies

3 dimes is just 30 pennies

2 nickels is just 10 pennies

so, the ratio from dimes to nickels is a ratio of 30:10 pennies, or 3:1 then, for a total amount of 560 pennies.

\bf \cfrac{dimes}{nickels}\qquad 3:2\qquad\cfrac{\stackrel{pennies}{30}}{\stackrel{pennies}{10}}\implies \cfrac{30}{10}\implies \cfrac{3}{1}\implies 3:1~ratio
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\stackrel{dimes}{pennies}}{\stackrel{nickels}{pennies}}\qquad 3:1\qquad \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot \frac{560}{3+1}}{1\cdot \frac{560}{3+1}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 140}{1\cdot 140}\implies \cfrac{420}{140}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \textit{now, how many dimes in 420 pennies?}\quad \cfrac{420}{10}\implies 42~dimes
\\\\\\
\textit{and how many nickels in 140 pennies?}\quad \cfrac{140}{5}\implies 28~nickels\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
42~dimes + 28~nickels\implies \$5.60

Can anybody help me solve this ?
qaws [65]

Answer:

77*

First we are going to take our given number, 25* and 78* and add them together.

25* + 78* = 103*

And subtract our answer, 103*, from 180*.

180* - 103* = 77*

77* is our missing angle. To prove it, we add angle measures a, b, and c, to make the number 180*

25* + 78* + 77* = 180*

Another way to write it is . . .

180* - (A + B) = C

~Hope this helps~
