Answer:

Let's calculate each of these ratios:

The ratio of 4 dimes to 5 nickels:

Ratio = (Number of dimes) / (Number of nickels)

Ratio = 4 / 5

So, the ratio of 4 dimes to 5 nickels is 4/5.

The ratio of 4 dimes to all 9 coins:

Ratio = (Number of dimes) / (Total number of coins)

Ratio = 4 / 9

So, the ratio of 4 dimes to all 9 coins is 4/9.

The ratio of 5 nickels to 4 dimes:

Ratio = (Number of nickels) / (Number of dimes)

Ratio = 5 / 4

So, the ratio of 5 nickels to 4 dimes is 5/4.
