    Part #1: 13/15

    Part #2: 11/45

    Part #3: 23/45

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Part #1: So add the total amount of coins: 4 + 7 + 12 + 22 = 45

    Since the only coins that are at most $1 are: The $1 coins, 50 cent coins, and the 20 cent coins. That is a total of 7 + 12 + 20 = 39

    39/45

    13/15

    Answer: 13/15

    Part #2: Since the only coins that are $1 or $2: The $1 coins and the $2 coins. That is a total of 4 + 7 = 11

    11/45

    Answer: 11/45

    Part #3: Since the only coins that are at least 50 cents: The $1 coins and the $2 coins and the 50 cent coins. That is a total of 4 + 7 + 12 = 23

    23/45

    Answer: 23/45
