Answer:2.35294117647 or 2.3
Just do 40/17
So it's actually 0.36363636... with the 36 repeating, right?
<span>Here's a technique for converting repeating decimals to fractions: </span>
<span>N = 0.3636363636... </span>
<span>100N = 36.36363636... </span>
<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>
<span>Solving this for N gives </span>
<span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>
<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>

400/2 = 200
200 + 20 = 220
200 - 20 = 180

Answer=Carlos
If Jackie has 10 groups, with 3 in each groups, she has 30 total pennies.
10*3=30 pennies
If Carlos has 5 groups with 100 in each group, then Carlos has 500 pennies.
5*100=500 pennies
500 pennies is more than 30 pennies, so Carlos has more pennies
