Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
Well, first of all, LCM means Lowest Common Multiple. So you have to write out the factors of each of the numbers. So that will be;
2= 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
5=5, 10, 15, 20
So now, you have to pick out the numbers that are common to both numbers. So;
10, 20
10 and 20 are the only common numbers. So you have to look for the lowest common number. And that is 10. So the LCM is 10.. Hope i helped. Have a nice day.
