If you exchange 120 dimes
for dollars, then how many
dollars would you get?


Sagot :

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

you divide 120 by 10 since dimes are equal to ten cents

To determine how many dimes are in dollars:

  ⇒ must know the rate of conversion

     ⇒ for every dollar, there are 10 dimes

         ⇒  [tex]\frac{1_. dollar}{10_. dimes}[/tex]

Let's solve:

   [tex]120_. dimes * \frac{1_.dollar}{10_.dimes} = \frac{120}{10} *\frac{dimes}{dimes} *dollar=12_.dollars[/tex]

Thus you would get 12 dollars

Answer: 12 dollars
