Answer:
2/1
Step-by-step explanation:
8/4 which is also 2/1
It is adding one little percentage of increase here. or, 1.1 each time....hope that this helps.
Let dimes = d and quarters =q
D + q = 50
D= 50-q
0.10d + 0.25Q = 7.70
Replace d with 50-q:
0.10(50-q) + 0.25q = 7.70
Simplify:
5 -0.10q + 0.25q = 7.70
5 + 0.15q = 7.70
Subtract 5 from both sides:
0.15q = 2.70
Divide both sides by 0.15:
Q = 2.70 / 0.15
Q = 18
D = 50-18 = 32
There are 32 dimes and 18 quarters
60=4/5x
4/5=0.8
60/0.8=75
X=75
