Warren's scribepost, ratios

Question # 17)

There are 48 passengers on a transit bus. At the stop 16 of the 48 passengers got off and 12 new passengers got on.

A) what is the ratio of the passengers who got off to the total number of passengers show the ratio in lowest terms.

A) The ratio in lowest terms is 1:3 because 48/16= 1 over 3

B) What is the ratio between the number of passengers who got on at the stop and the new total of passengers.

B) The ratio is 12:44, 0.27, and 27%

My post from friday and Today

Ok you guys I know i made a late post but Im doing the second one so yeah here i go.

Question 1: How full is the Canadian jar?

In the U.S jar you guys know that there is 3/4 coins in that jar and the Canadian jar there is 370 coins which could 1/4 i guess.The Canadian jar could be anything and any solution but the thing is it depends how much is in there.So i estimated that there could be about 200 pennies, 50 nickels, 100 dimes and 20 quarters but the fact about this question is that it could be more then 370 or maybe higher then that but could make about 5$ or even 3$ to it.

Question 2: How long will it take to fill the if you put one coin each day?

It depends how much and how many days you add 1 coin each and everyday but the fact is that how much the jar can hold and how much capacity.So I estimated again and each coin from the U.S would take about 3 years including counting the days which is 370 but it depends how much you put each day but in my opinion and if you want my opinion is would take 3 years in July 9th.

So here is my solution for this problem:

$00.01- Would take about 10 000 days to complete this jar in about 365 0000 days to complete.

$00.05- Would take about 5000 days to complete this in about 1825 000 days to complete the jar.

$00.10- Would take about 2500 days to be a-little complete or not but will take 912500 days to complete.

$00.25- Would take about 1250 days to not be complete but can be about 2/4 but the days I estimated will be 456 250 days to complete I guess.

Since I was late here are the questions for the old post i never did:

Question 1: What is the most common coin?

In my solution I used probability because it depends on the color because the pennies are $00.01 and they are small to be recognized and they are the ones that cost cheap so pennies are the most coins in the jar and i estimated that there could be about 2000 coins or less in that jar.

Question 2: How can we make $100 in that jar?

In my opinion there are many ways to make $100 in that jar.

My first solution is that it could be 10 000 pennies to make $100 in that jar.

Or also making 500 nickels to make $100 in that jar.

There are many ways you can make 100 in that jar and also estimating how to make $100.
