Answer:

N=250

Step-by-step explanation:

 "twice as many nickels as dimes"     means    N =2D     [eq1]

 "collection of nickels and dimes is worth $25"    means

        5N + 10D = 2500      [eq2]

   (To avoid using decimal points, PLZ express everything in cents.)

Substitution   (substitute N from eq1 into eq2]:

     5(2D) + 10D = 2500

      10D + 10D = 2500

          20D = 2500

            D = 125

      N=2D         [eq1 again]

      N=2(125)

      N=250

Check:

  Is   5(250) + 10(125) = 2500   ?

        1250 +  1250 = 2500   ?

          2500 = 2500   ?yes

Help? 11 3/4 is the quotient of a number y and 6 1/4
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y divided by 6 1/4 = 11 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the mixed numbers into improper fractions:

y divided by 25/4 = 47/4

Next, multiply both sides by 25/4:

y divided by 25/4 x 25/4 = 47/4 x 25/4

The 25/4's on the left side of the equation cancel each other out, leaving you with:

y = 47/4 x 25/4

Multiply 47 x 25 and keep the same denominator:

y = 1,175/4

Divide and:

y = 293 3/4

What is the quotient and remainder for 52 divided by 8
MariettaO [177]
When you divide 52 by 8, you have to find the nearest multiple of 8 that is either equal to or less than 52. 
closest multiple of 8 that is less than 52 is 48. Quotient is the number of times 8 is in 48. In other words 8 is there 6 times in 48. 
quotient is found by dividing the closest multiple of 8 (48) by 8.
48 / 8 = 6
quotient is 6
remainder is the difference between the number given and closest multiple
number given is 52. closest multiple is 48. difference between 52 and 48 is 
52 - 48 = 4
the remainder is 4
quotient is 6
