Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of (3+6) = 9 coins

P( dime) = dimes / total

              = 6/9

              = 2/3

Answer:

Hey there!

Jeanette has 3+6, or 9 coins in total.

6 of the coins are dimes.

Thus, the probability of dropping a dime is 6/9, which can be simplified to 2/3.

Let me know if this helps :)
