Question

Chase has 100 nickels and pennies in a jar. The ratio of nickels to pennies in the jar is 1:4 of the coins in the jar. How much money does Chase have in pennies?

Answer 1

Chase has `80` cents in pennies.

Explanation:

Out of `5 (1+4)` coins `1` is nickel and `4` are pennies.
So Out of `100` coins `100/5=20` are nickels and `100/5*4=80` are pennies.
`1` penny `=1` cent and `1` nickel `= 5` cents

Chase has `80*1=80` cents in pennies. {Ans]
