Answer 1

Kwamir has 800 pennies and Mylady has 8 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many pennies Kwamir and Mylady have, we need to calculate their respective amounts based on the information given. Kwamir has 10 times as many pennies as Elijah, so we multiply Elijah's amount by 10. Mylady has 1/10 as many pennies as Elijah, so we multiply Elijah's amount by 1/10. Let's do the calculations:

• Kwamir: 80 x 10 = 800 pennies
• Mylady: 80 x 1/10 = 80/10 = 8 pennies

Therefore, Kwamir has 800 pennies and Mylady has 8 pennies.
