Answer:

8.

Explanation:
The ratio or fraction for this problem would be 1 (gold coin) : 25 (points)

If we want to find out how many gold coins he needs to get 200 points we need to divide 200 by 25.

200/25 : 8

if we want to check our answer do this
1:25
1 x 8 is 8
25 x 8 is 200

Soo... Collin needs to find 8 coins to win 200 points.

Hope I was hopeful! <3
