Ari is arranging her coin collection. She has 11 pennies, 5 nickels, 8 dimes, 7 quarters, and 9 half-dollars. If she chooses one at random, what is the probability that it is a penny?

The percentage would be 27.5 because you add the 11, 5, 8, 7, 9 up and then divided by 11 to get your percentage. So percentage should be 27.5% and a fraction would be 11/40
