A bag contains:

5 red marbles

6 blue marbles

3 green marbles

4 black marbles

2 yellow marbles



If Samantha opens more bags containing a total of 140 marbles, how many red marbles should she expect to find.

Respuesta :

Answer: 28 red marbles


Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are in total 140 marbles and there are 5 red marbles, just simply divide 140 by 5 and you get your answer. 28 red marbles.

Answer:

she would find 35 red marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

take the # of red marbles in one bag over the total number of marbles in a bag

5/20

and we know the total of the bags she opens with is 140

essentially it leaves us with x/140

and we're trying to figure out 'x'

so we know that 20 times 7 equals 140 so we do the same to 5 and multiply it by 7 to get 35
