The correct diagram would be:Red tomatoes: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Yellow tomatoes: ▇▇▇▇▇To find out how many red tomatoes Gino sold, we need to set up a proportion based on the ratio given (8 red tomatoes for every 5 yellow tomatoes) and the difference between the red and yellow tomatoes (42 more red tomatoes than yellow tomatoes).Let x represent the number of yellow tomatoes.So, according to the given ratio, the number of red tomatoes would be ( \frac{8}{5}x ).Since Gino sold 42 more red tomatoes than yellow tomatoes, the equation becomes:( \frac{8}{5}x - x = 42 )Solving for x:( \frac{3}{5}x = 42 )( x = \frac{42 \times 5}{3} )( x = 70 )So, Gino sold 70 yellow tomatoes.Now, to find the number of red tomatoes:( \text{Number of red tomatoes} = 8 \times 70 = 560 )Gino sold 560 red tomatoes.
