600 coins is =100%
1 coin is =100/600%
thn 240 coins will= 100/600*240= 40%
hope it helps

Answer 2

Total number of coins = 600

Total number of pennies = 240

We know, percent = quantity obtained / total quantity x 100

∴ percentage of the coins are pennies = 240 / 600 x 100

⇒  percentage of the coins are pennies = 240 / 6

⇒  percentage of the coins are pennies = 40

Therefore,  percentage of the coins are pennies is 40%.
