How many nickels and dimes are in 1.20 if there are six times more nickels than dimes
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "1 time more = 2x as much
\n" ); document.write( "2 times more = 3x as much
\n" ); document.write( "3 times more = 4x as much
\n" ); document.write( "4 times more = 5x as much
\n" ); document.write( "5 times more = 6x as much
\n" ); document.write( "6 times more = 7x as much
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "n = 7d
\n" ); document.write( "5n + 10d = 120 --> n + 2d = 24
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "7d + 2d = 24
\n" ); document.write( "9d = 24
\n" ); document.write( "d = 8/3 dimes
\n" ); document.write( "Not an integer solution, because the dummy that wrote the problem thinks 6 times more = 6 times as much.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Sometimes you see \"3 times closer.\"
\n" ); document.write( "1 time closer --> the distance is zero. 3x closer is silly.
\n" ); document.write( "Same for \"3 times smaller.\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
