6 cones

Step-by-step explanation:

20/4 = 5 :because 4 quarters in a dollar

then 12/10= 1 1/5 : because 10 dimes are in a dollar there would be 20 cents left

5 Ice Creams

12 dimes=$1.20

$5.00

$1.20

$6.20

So he can but six ice creams with 20 cents left over

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
