Chuck has a coin collection with 30 pennies, 24 quarters, and 36 nickels. He wants to arrange the coins into rows. Each row will have the same. How many coins can he put in each row?

Respuesta :

Chuck can make 10 rows out of his 30 pennies, 24 quarters, and 36 nickels. How I determined this answer:

1. Add 30 + 24 + 36 = 90.

2. Divide 90 ÷ 9 (assuming Chuck will have 9 coins per row) = 10 rows.

OR...

Chuck can have 9 rows, with 10 coins per row. How I determined this answer:

1. Add 30 + 24 + 36 = 90.

2. Divide 90 ÷ 10 (assuming that Chuck will have 10 coins per row) = 9 rows.

I hope this helps you! :)
