Question

Kate has a coin collection. She keeps 7 of the coins in a box which is only 5% of her entire collection.

Answer 1

Answer:

She has 140 coins in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 7 coins is only 5% of the entire collection, 7 coins=5%. 100% is the total. So first you need to divide 100 by 5 which is 20 (100÷5=20). Next, you need to multiply 20 by 7 (20×7=140) to find out how much coins she has in total.
