Do you know what you need to do to solve this problem?
The number of pennies in bank is 42
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that ratio of pennies to quarters in a piggy bank is 14 : 3
Let 14x be the number of pennies in piggy bank
Let 3x be the number of quarters in piggy bank
<em><u>To find: number of pennies</u></em>
Given that there are 51 quarters
number of pennies in piggy bank + number of quarters in piggy bank = 51
14x + 3x = 51
17x = 51
x = 3
number of pennies = 14x = 14(3) = 42
Thus the number of pennies in bank is 42
