Question

a bag contains only red and green counters. in total bag contains 48 counters, of which 20 are red. write, as a ratio, the number of red counters to the number of green counters. give your answering its simplest form.

Answer 1

Total number of Counters = 48

Red Counters = 20

green counters = 48 - 20

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀= 28 .

Ratio of Red counters to that the number of green counters = 20 : 28

= 20/28

$= \huge \frac{20}{28}$
