I don't have the coin counts or the picture, so I can't tell which choice is true. Please provide the numbers of each coin (or the image).
How to check yourself:
- Let p = number of pennies, d = number of dimes, total t = p + d.
- A says p : t = 6 : 9, i.e. p/t = 6/9 = 2/3.
- B says d : t = 2 : 3, i.e. d/t = 2/3.
- C says d : p = 3 : 6, i.e. d/p = 3/6 = 1/2.
- D says p : d = 6 : 9, i.e. p/d = 6/9 = 2/3.
Compute p, d, t and compare to the simplified ratios above; that tells which statement is true. If you post the counts or the picture, I’ll pick the correct answer.
