The ratio of quarters to dimes in a coin collection is 5: 3. you add the same number of new quarters as dimes
to the collection. is the ratio of quarters to dimes still 5 : 3

The ratio of quarters to dimes is not still 5 : 3

Solution:

Given that ratio of quarters to dimes in a coin collection is 5:3 .

You add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection .  

Need to check if ratio of quarters to dimes is still 5 : 3

As ratio of dimes and quarters is 5 : 3

lets assume initially number of quarters = 5x and number of dimes = 3x.

Now add same number of new quarters as dimes to the collection

Let add "x" number of quarters and "x" number of dimes

So After adding,

Number of quarters = initially number of quarters + added number of quarters = 5x + x = 6x

Number of dimes = initially number of dimes + added number of dimes

= 3x + x = 4x

New ratio of quarters to dimes is 6x : 4x = 3 : 2

So we have seen here ratio get change when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection

Ratio get change from 5 : 3 when same number of new quarters and dimes is added to the collection and new ratio will depend on number of quarters and dimes added to collection.

$450.00 for 6 weeks

or

$300

step-by-step explanation:

$200.00 for first week $50.00 x5 equals $250 plus $200 equals $450.00 for six weeks.

$200 for first week

$200 x 0.10 = $20

$20 x 5 = $100

$200 + $100 = $300
