The total number of red markers in the package is 200 and this can be determined by using the unitary method.

Given :

The 8 red markers in a package account for 4% of all markers in the package.

The unitary method can be used to determine the total number of red markers in the package.

The following steps can be used to determine the total number of red markers in the package:
