Draw a conclusion for the statement if possible:

If a coin is a dime, then it is worth 10 cents. If a coin is worth 10 cents, then 10 would make a dollar.

1 answer

From the given statements, we can derive the following conclusions:

  1. The first statement implies that if we have a coin that is specifically a dime, it indeed has a value of 10 cents.

  2. The second statement states that if a coin is worth 10 cents, then 10 of those coins would make a dollar (since 10 coins * 10 cents/coin = 100 cents, which equals 1 dollar).

Based on these statements, we can conclude that:

If a coin is a dime, then 10 dimes would make a dollar.

Thus, the relationships between being a dime and its worth, as well as the conversion to a dollar, logically follow from the statements provided.
