Question

8. The value of 6 quarters is what percent of the value of a dollar? Do not units (%) in your answer.​

Answer 1

The value of 6 quarters is 150% of the value of a dollar. You find this percentage by multiplying the value of the 6 quarters in cents (150 cents) by 100 and then dividing by the value of a dollar in cents (100 cents).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out what percent the value of 6 quarters is of a dollar, we first need to know the total value of the quarters and then compare that to the value of a dollar. Since one quarter is worth 25 cents, 6 quarters are worth 6 × 25 cents, which equals 150 cents. A dollar is equal to 100 cents.

Now, we calculate the percentage:

1. Write the ratio of the value of 6 quarters to the value of a dollar: 150 cents / 100 cents.
2. Divide 150 by 100 to get 1.5.
3. Convert 1.5 to a percent by multiplying by 100, which gives us 150%.

Therefore, the value of 6 quarters is 150% of the value of a dollar.

Answer 2

150%

Step-by-step explanation:

4 quarters = %1.00 = 100% and 2 quarters = $0.50 = 0.50%

100% + 50% = 150% or $1.50
