To calculate the fraction of a dollar represented by 1 quarter, 1 dime, and 1 nickel, we first need to determine the total value of these coins.
1 quarter is worth 25 cents (or $0.25), 1 dime is worth 10 cents (or $0.10), and 1 nickel is worth 5 cents (or $0.05).
Adding these values together, we get $0.25 + $0.10 + $0.05 = $0.40. Therefore, the fraction of a dollar represented by these coins is 40/100, which simplifies to 2/5.

It is 10/25, which can be simplified if required.
None. Unless the coin has an "S" mintmark, it is a normal copper-nickel coin made out of the same composition as the dime, quarter and half-dollar and is only worth $1.
A dime is one tenth of a dollar, so nine dimes is nine tenths (9/10) of a dollar.
1/10
A dime is worth ten cents, or 1/10 of a dollar in United States currency. The dime was first authorized for use in 1792 and it was introduced into circulation in 1796.
