Answer:

Well, you first want to find out what it is in decimal form, which in this case is 0.124. Then once you do that, you can convert it to an improper fraction, which would be 124/100, you then can simplify it to convert it into a mixed number, which lands you the final answer of 1 6/25 I hope this helps you! :)

Answer: The required number of quarters in the collection is 11.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a collection of 20 coins made up of only nickels, dimes and quarters has a total value of $3.35.

If the dimes were nickels, the nickels were quarters and the quarters were dimes, the collection of coins would have a total value of $2.75.

We are to find the number of quarters in the collection.

Let x, y and z represents the number of nickels, dimes and quarters respectively in the collection.

We will be using the following values of nickels, dimes and quarters in form of dollar :

1 nickel = $ 0.05, 1 dime = $ 0.10 and 1 quarter = $0.25.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$x+y+z=20\\\\\Rightarrow x=20-y-z~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\0.05x+0.10y+0.25z=3.35\\\\\Rightarrow 5x+10y+25z=335\\\\\Rightarrow x+2y+5z=67~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)\\\\0.05y+0.25x+0.10z=2.75\\\\\Rightarrow 5y+25x+10z=275\\\\\Rightarrow y+2z+5x=55~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

Substituting the value of x from equation (i) in equations (ii) and (iii), we have

$(20-y-z)+2y+5z=67\\\\\Rightarrow y+4z=47\\\\\Rightarrow y=47-4z~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iv)$

and

$y+2z+5(20-y-z)=55\\\\\Rightarrow -4y-3z=-45\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{45-3z}{4}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(v)$

Comparing the values of y from equations (iv) and (v), we get

$47-4z=\dfrac{45-3z}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow 188-16z=45-3z\\\\\Rightarrow 16z-3z=188-45\\\\\Rightarrow 13z=143\\\\\Rightarrow z=\dfrac{143}{13}\\\\\Rightarrow z=11.$

Thus, the required number of quarters in the collection is 11.
