Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If all 21 coins were dimes, she'd have $2.10. But she has 90 more cents than that. Now for each coin that's a quarter, not a dime, she has 15 cents more. 90/15= 6. So there are 6 quarters, and 21-6 = 15 dimes.
Now we do it backwards to see if it's right. 6 quarters is $1.50, 15 dimes is $1.50, add those together and you get $3. So it's right. 6 quarters, 15 dimes.
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
4/15 + 1/15 = 5/15
simplified its 1/3
The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:
1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5
Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:
12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10
Now we can set up the equation as:
18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5
The answer is negative 3/5.
I hope this helps.
So I think you have to find 11% of 24 and that is 11/100 x 24 = 2.64$. Then you reduce it to the real price 24-2.64= 21.36$ (the new prize). I might be completly wrong but I hope this helps
