Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{3}{4}  -  \frac{2}{3}  \\  \\  = \frac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3}   -  \frac{2 \times 4}{3 \times 4}  \\  \\  =   \frac{9}{12}  -  \frac{8}{12}  \\  \\  =  \frac{9 - 8}{12}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1}{12}  \\

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find common denominators. Note that what you do to the denominator, you must do to the numerator.

(3/4)(3/3) = 9/12

(2/3)(4/4) = 8/12

Subtract:

9/12 - 8/12 = 1/12

1/12 is your answer.

Jim has only dimes and nickels in his coin bank. He has 37 coins with a total value of $2.65.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of dimes and y represent the number of nickels.  The total number of coins is 37; this gives us the equation

x+y = 37

Each dime is worth ten cents, or 0.10, and each nickel is worth five cents, or 0.05.  The total amount of money is given by

0.10x+0.05y = 2.65

This gives us the system

\left \{ {{x+y=37} \atop {0.10x+0.05y=2.65}} \right.

To solve this, we will use substitution.  We will isolate x in the first equation:

x+y=37

Subtract y from each side:

x+y-y = 37-y

x = 37-y

Substitute this into the second equation:

0.10(37-y)+0.05y = 2.65

Using the distributive property,

0.10(37)-0.10(y)+0.05y = 2.65

3.70-0.10y+0.05y = 2.65

Combining like terms,

3.70-0.05y = 2.65

Subtract 3.70 from each side,

3.70-0.05y-3.70 = 2.65-3.70

-0.05y = -1.05

Divide both sides by -0.05:

-0.05y/-0.05 = -1.05/-0.05

y = 21

There were 21 nickels.
