Answer:

quarter = 2.50, nickel = 2.20, and cent = 1.10

Explanation:

You divide the mass of the object by the mass of the comparison object.

Relative mass;

The masses of these coins are:

quarter = 5.66 g; dime = 2.30 g; nickel = 5.00 g; penny = 2.50 g.

What are the masses of these coins relative to the mass of a dime?

We get

Quarters : dimes : nickels : cents = 5.66 g : 2.30 g : 5.00 g : 2.50 g

= [tex]\frac{5.66}{2.30} :\frac{2.30}{2.30} : \frac{5.00}{2.30} : \frac{2.50}{2.30}[/tex]

= 2.50 : 1 : 2.20 : 1.10

Thus, compared to a dime, the relative masses are: quarter = 2.50, nickel = 2.20, and cent = 1.10.
