since two nickels equal a dime multiply 8 by 2 and you get 16 nickels and since five nickels equals one quarter multiply 5*12 to get 60 nickels so the ratio is 4:15

Maximize the nickels (since they have the smallest value, it takes the most of them to make up the value you want) and use 1 each of nickels and dimes.\n\neg. $1.00 = .25 + .10 + .65\n         1 quarter, 1 dime, 13 nickels\n\n\n$15,348.30= .25 + .10 + 15,347.95\n         1 quarter, 1 dime, 306,959 nickels :)\n\nOr, for a formula, subtract $0.35 (the value of 1 quarter and 1 nickel) from the amount, then divide by $0.05.  This is the number of nickels you need, add 2 to get the total number of coins.

12,000 X 3/8 or 12,000x.375 = 4,500.\n\n12,000-4,500= 7,500.\n\nThe answer is 7,500 more to raise

For question 1, think about the fraction. It's 9/24. A pie chart shows a fraction visually. Imagine a pie cut into 24 identical pieces. One piece for each student. Now color 9 of the pieces (all together) a different color from the rest of the pie to represent the newspaper only pupils.  Now measure the angle formed by the section of newspaper only). What is the angle of a sector of a circle that is 9/24 of the circle?\n\nFor question 2, a mixed number means there is a whole number and a fraction. What is .25?? It's 25 percent or one quarter of a dollar... so the fraction is 1/4. 2.25 is the same as 2 1/4... those digits add up to 7.

You're really close! The answer is actually 1:03:11. You were off one minute because you forgot to borrow a minute from the 34 so you could subtract the seconds.

if i were u i would look at the meter range on the sticker or online. use only quarters though.

I may be barking completely up the wrong tree here. Are you comparing one ratio with another?\n\nIn the first, there are 45 parts, in the second there are 19.\n\nMost math problems have a glimmer of sense about them, in that when you hit upon the right way to solve them or what they are really asking, the calculation is quite easy.  I was expecting the number of total parts in each expression to be an easy multiple of each other, which they are not.\n\nIf you are expected to apply the first ratio to the 18 side of the second, that looks a little more reasonable (45 and 18 are both multiples of 9.)\n\nDoes that help without seeming to? (Also I understand you to mean 'factor' and 'easy')

ok darlin, first off everyone loves money especially dollars, if you look at a dollar and break it down to dimes, your working percentages, and metric system, get comfortable with that then go to a five thinking only in terms of dimes, then your on your way.....

Depending on condition of the coins, the penny could be worth up to $8 and the nickel up to $2! Sorry!

Delano has an odd amount of dimes while nadine needs to have an even amount of nickels.  Nadine has 4 nickels while Delano has 11 dimes.  They have a total of 1.30$

So she has 50 coins and some are dimes and some are nickels.\n\nWe'll say there are X dimes, so that means there are 50-X nickels.  Since the dimes are worth 10 cents each, we'll call them 10x.  Nickels, being worth only 5 cents, will be called 5(50-x).\n\nand all of that together is $3.50 (or 350 cents), which means:\n10X + 5(50-x)= 350     SO\n10X + 250-5x = 350     or\n10X - 5X = 350 - 250   or\n5X = 100               so\nx = 20                 \nsince x is the number of dimes, there are 20 dimes\nwith 50 coins, there are 50-20 nickels, or 30 nickels\n\nplugging it back into the original formula, we get\n10 * 20 + 5 * 30 = 350\n200 + 150 = 350
