The answer is 6 because for every 5 coins she gets she gives 2.
Since: 5-2=3 (and 2 for her brother), then 3+5-2=6 (and 2 for her brother), then 6+5-2=9 (and 2 for her brother). Therefore totaling 6 coins for her brother.

Frankie will have 3.6 coins if Carmen has 9 coins

If for every 5 coins Carmen gets she gives 2 to her brother frankie, this can be expressed as:

  • 5 coins  Carmen  = 2 coins to frankie

If carmen has 9 coins, the amount that frankie has will be expressed as:

  • 9 coin Carmen = x

Divide both expressions

5/9 = 2/x

5x = 9 * 2

5x = 18

x = 18/5

x = 3.6coins

Hence frankie will have 3.6 coins if Carmen has 9 coins
