2(p + s) = 106
2(34 + s) = 106
68 + 2s = 106
2s = 38
s = 19
Answer: 9/16
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we must find the answer to the hidden question: How much cheese did Mr. Sand put in the container without the weight of the container? We can rename 1 1/4 to 1 4/16, so 1 4/16 - 1/16 = 1 3/16
Now we must find the amount of cheese that needs to be added. We can rename 1 3/4 to 1 12/16 by multiplying it by 4/4. 1 12/16 - 1 3/16 = 9/16
9/16 pound of cheese should be added to get the amount Veronica asked for.
Let
n-------> the number of nickels
d-------> the number of dimes
we know that
so
-----> equation A
-------> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
------> equation that can be used to find n
Solve for n
find the value of d
therefore
the answer is
The equation that can be used to find n is
The number of nickels in the collection is
