Question

In a bag of red and blue sweets, the ratio of red sweets to blue sweets is 3:4. If the bug contains 120 blue sweets, how many blue sweets are there?

Answer 1

If there are 120 blue sweets then going by the ratio 3:4, there are 90 red sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Red sweets : Blue sweets = 3:4

Total ratio* = 3+4 = 7

Blue sweets = 4x = 120

Red sweets = 3x

where X is the ratio multiplier

x= 120/4 = 30

》 Red sweets = 3 × 30 = 90
