Answer:
There are 24 quarters in the cash box.
Explanation:
Since a cash box contains a certain number of coins, of which 63 are dimes, 33 are nickels, and the rest are quarters, if the probability of selecting a quarter from this bank is 1/5, to determine how many quarters does the bank contain the following calculation must be performed:
1/5 = Quarters
4/5 = Nickels and Dimes
4/5 = 63 + 33 = 96
96/4 x 5 = X
24 x 5 = X
120 = X
120 - 96 = 24
Therefore, there are 24 quarters in the cash box.
