To answer this problem, these are the steps.

First, form debbies equation:
Debbie has 8 quarters and 24 pennies.

Let Q for number quarters
Let P for number pennies

It says that she has N times as many pennies as quarters.
This means that Q = P

So, the equation would be 8Q  = 24P
To further simplify the equation
8Q = 24P
Q = 3P

So, 1 quarter is equal to 3 pennies.

Answer:

\(24=8n\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of quarters

y------> the number of pennies

we have

\(x=8\ quarters\)

\(y=24\ pennies\)

we know that

\(y=nx\)

Substitute the value of x and the value of y and solve for n

\(24=8n\) ------> equation that can be used to find the value of n

\(n=3\)
