If a bag contains 12 quarters, 6 dimes, and 18 nickles, what is the part-to-whole ratio of nickles to all coins?

1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 18 nickles so that number is 18. When added together, there are 36 total coins. Since it states nickle to all coins, we replace to with a colon and replace the words with the related numbers.

18:36

like a fraction, ratios can be simplified. 18 is half of 36 so the ratio would go to 1:2. This means that 1 in every 2 coins is a nickle.

1 to 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If a bag contains 12 quarters, 6 dimes, and 18 nickles, what is the part-to-whole ratio of nickles to all coins?

Total number of coins: 12 quarters, 6 dimes, and 18 nickles add to 36 coins

Number of nickles: 18 nickles
