Respuesta :
There are 8 coins total, so that is your denominator.
There are 3 dimes and 2 quarters, so add them together and you get 5 which is your numerator.
5/8 should be the fraction you end up with :)

Answer: Fraction of coins is either a dime or a quarter is [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of nickles = 3
Number of dimes = 3
Number of quarters = 2
Total number of coins = 3+3+2 = 8
So, Fraction of coins is either a dime or a quarter is given by
[tex]\frac{3}{8}+\frac{2}{8}\\\\=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Hence, fraction of coins is either a dime or a quarter is [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
