Answer:

1449/2691

Step-by-step explanation:

We must start from the fraction that is 7/13. Now, we know that it was simplified, with trial and error we can reach the result.

First, let's multiply both by 200:

7 * 200 = 1400

13 * 200 = 2600

1400 + 2600 = 4000

It means that we are missing 140, to reach the objective, that is, we are close, let's try 205 now:

7 * 205 = 1435

13 * 205 = 2665

1435 + 2665 = 4100

We get even closer, only 40 missing, let's try 207 below:

7 * 205 = 1449

13 * 205 = 2691

1449 + 2691 = 4140

We managed to get to the corresponding numbers, therefore the original fraction was 1449/2691

You have two nickels three dimes and a quarter. Using at least one of each coin, how many different amounts of money can you mak
Slav-nsk [51]
2 nickels (5 cents each)
3 dimes (10 cents each)
1 quarter (25 cents)

1 nickel, 1 dime, 1 quarter
5 + 10 + 25 = 40

2 nickels, 1 dime, 1 quarter
5(2) + 10 + 25 = 45

1 nickel, 2 dimes, 1 quarter
5 + 10(2) + 25 = 50

1 nickel, 3 dimes, 1 quarter
5 + 10(3) + 25 = 60

2 nickels, 2 dimes, 1 quarter
5(2) + 10(2) + 25 = 55

2 nickels, 3 dimes, 1 quarter
5(2) + 10(3) + 25 = 65

You can make 6 different amounts. 
You could also find this by multiplying however many coins you have all together.
