Answer:
A: 5/23
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets take the total amount of coins in the jar: 8 nickels, 10 dimes, 6 quarters, and 22 pennies- for a total of 46 coins.
The question is asking what the odds of pulling a dime are.
Since there is 46 coins in the jar, you can just do a fraction and set it up like this:
<u>10</u>
46
From there just simplify the fraction, 10 / 2 = 5, 46 / 2 = 23. The problem can't be simplified further, so the answer you originally had was correct. 5/23
