Answer:

we need to get the same number below to make it easier. so 1/4 will be equal to 2/8.

then she adds 360 pennies so it's 5/8 full.

therefore, the 360 pennies = 3/8 full

because 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8.

now, we need to divide 360/3 so we can get how much pennies when it's 1/8 full.

360 pennies/3 = 120 pennies = 1/8 full.

now to get a full bank we just need to multiply 120 x 8 because 1/8 x 8 = 1 which means a full fraction.

120 pennies x 8 = 960 pennies.

Raina's bank can hold up to 960 pennies.

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the variable "x". Let's call "x" Raina's penny bank.

After adding 360 pennies, at the end, she has 5/8x, or 5/8.

So we start with

(1/4)x + 360 = 5/8x

Let's subtract 1/4x from both sides

360 = 5/8x - 1/4x

Remember, we need to use common denominators to subtract, so 1/4 becomes 2/8

360 = 5/8x - 2/8x

Now we simplify to get

360=3/8x

Multiply the reciprocal of 3/8 to both sides which is 8/3

360 * 8/3 = x

Answer is 960 pennies.

Therefore Raina's bank hold 960 pennies.
