Madilynn Hanson · Answer 1

2 quarters = 25+25=50

1 dime = 10

No, because it would only be 2/10 if 50 was half of 100 but it's half of 100, not 10. So, no.

Adelaide Mitchell · Answer 2

Yes becauze, if you had 2 quarters and a dime you have 60 cents and that divided by 3 is 20/60and if you simplify that you can get 2/10.
