    Pennies to dimes=1:3

    36=1 unit

    3 times 36=3 units=108

    dimes=108

    4:5=dimes:nidlces

    dimes=108=4 units

    divide by 4

    1 unit=27

    5 units=niclkes=27*5=135

    135 nickles

    If the ratio of pennies to dimes is 1:3 and there are 36 pennies, then there is 108 dimes. If the ratio of dimes to nickels is 4:5 then you have 135 dimes.
