Question

If a bag contains 10 blue marbles, 5 green Marbles, and 3 red marbles, What is the ratio of red marbles to all Marbles? be sure to simplify/ an equivalent ratio

Answer 1

1 red marble to 6 total marbles

Explanation:

There are 3 red marbles, and (10 + 5 + 3) total marbles.

There are 3 red marbles to 18 total marbles

therefore the ratio is 3 to 18 which can be simplified by dividing both sides of the ratio by 3

the ratio is 3/3 : 18/3 which is 1:6
