a bag contains 60 marbles, some blue and some green. the ratio of blue marbles to green ones is 1:5. how many blue marbles are there

Respuesta :

Hello!

For every 1 blue marble there are 5 greens

You add the numbers in the ratio

1 + 5 = 6

Divide this number from the amount of marbles

60 / 6 = 10

Multiply the ratio by this

1 * 10 = 10

5 * 10 = 50

There are 10 blue marbles and 50 green ones

The answer is 10

Hope this helps!
