Answer:
1 /2 or 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Dividing fractions are relatively easy. One way to do it is multiplying the reciprocal of one of the fractions to the other. So 3/5 would become 5/3. Multiply, 9/10*5/3=45/30. Now that you have the answer you need to simplify which will end up into 1 1/2.
Answer: If you are trying to put the fractions in simplest form, then here are your answers:
9/4
25/8
5/16

There are 75 coins that aren't nickels. </h3><h3>
One equation you could use is 75+n = 92</h3>
(This solves to n = 17 meaning there are 17 nickels)
=====================================================
Explanation:
"There are 25 pennies, 21 dimes, and 29 quarters", so there are 25+21+29 = 75 coins so far. This is the amount of coins that aren't nickels. The rest are nickels, which is some amount n. This adds to the 75 to get 75+n. Set this equal to 92 because there are 92 coins in all. That's how we end up with 75+n = 92.

Extra info
The equation 75+n = 92 is the same as n+75 = 92. Subtract 75 from both sides to isolate n. You should get n = 17 after doing so.
Answer:
She earns $6.50 from the Smiths which is 25 cents more than she earns at the Nelsons.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must find the hourly rate she earns at the Smiths. This will allow you to compare to the hourly rate that is given for the Nelsons. To find the Smiths hourly rate divide $39 by the 6 hours she babysat there. This will have the hourly rate. 39/6=6.5. This means she earns $6.50 an hour for the Smiths. When comparing the rates it is clear that she earned 25 cents more at the Smiths.
