Marco has a collection of 38 state quarters. If 3/5 of his quarters are dated 2005, what is the approximate value of the quarters from 2005?

Sagot :

First, find the number of quarters that are dated 2005 by multiplying 38*(3/5)
You get 22.8, so you round that to the nearest whole number (23)
Then, since each quarter is worth ($.25) you multiply the number of coins by the worth.
23*.25=$5.75

Answer:   [tex]\$5.75[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Marco has a collection of 38 state quarters.

The part of his quarters are dated 2005 = [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]

Then, the value of  quarters from 2005 is given by :-

[tex]\dfrac{3}{5}\times38=22.8\approx23[/tex]

Also, the value of each quarter = $0.25

Then , the approximate value of the quarters from 2005 :-

[tex]23\times0.25=\$5.75[/tex]

Hence, the approximate value of the quarters from 2005 = [tex]\$5.75[/tex]
