Question

A package of m&ms contained 32 red, 14 blue, and 22 green pieces. What is the ratio of green m&ms to total m&ms

Answer 1

`ratio=(11)/(34)`

Explanation:

step 1

Find out the total pieces of m&ms

Adds the red, the blue and the green pieces

so

`(32+14+22)=68\ pieces`

step 2

Find the ratio of green m&ms to total m&ms

The ratio is equal to divide the number of green pieces by the total number of pieces

`ratio=(22)/(68)`

simplify

`ratio=(11)/(34)`
