If a bag contains 12 quarters, 6 dimes, and 18 nickles, what is the part-to-whole ratio of dimes to all coins?

A) 1:2
B) 1:3
C) 1:4
D) 1:6



PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!

Answer 1

D) 1:6

Explanation:

Total number of coins = 12 + 6 + 18 = 36

Total number of dimes = 6

Part-to-whole ratio of dimes to all coins = 6/36 = 1/6 ==> 1:6
