Answer would be eight because you divide eight hundred by ten cents to get eight.
So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?
So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20
So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.
So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.
So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.
4.80/0.15 = 32
So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.
Answer:
You cannot divide first because in equations you need to isolate the variable, which means subtracting first. The outcome will be different if you change the order.
Second side= x
First side = 2x
Third side = x+5
x+2x+x+5=49
4x=44
x=11
1st side= 22
2nd side = 11
3rd side = 16
