Answer 1

Answer:

$1.08 are pennies

$0.72 are quaters

$0.48 are nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sharwarma has coins worth of $4.32

1/4 of the coins are pennies

=> $4.32/4 are pennies

=> $1.08 are pennies

1/6 of the coins are quaters

=> $4.32/6 are quaters

=> $0.72 are quaters

1.5 times of the nickels than quarters

Let N represent the Nickels, then

=> 1.5N = 0.72

N = 0.72/1.5

= 0.48

=> $0.48 are nickels.
