Question

What fraction of a dollar is shown by coins (2 quarters, 1 dime, and 5 nickels)?

I got 80/100 equals 8/10. Is 8/10 the correct answer? If not can you show me how to get the right answer?

Answer 1

Not quite.

2 quarters = $0.50
1 dime = $0.10
5 nickels = $0.25

That's a total of $0.85 = 85/100 = 17/20

Answer 2

I'm sorry its 4 nickels, not 5 nickels. Can you check my answer again..thanks

Answer 3

Then 80 cents is right.

8/10 = 4/5
