Question

Mr castle shares out 32 marbles between emily and zak in the ratio of 3:1. how much marbles does each child get?

Answer 1

Answer:

Emily=24 marbles Zak=8 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of ratio= 3+1=4

Emily: Zak= 3:1

no. of marbles for Emily= $\frac{no. of ratio}{sum of ratio}$×total no. of marbles

                                      = $\frac{3}{4}$×32

                                      =24 marbles

No. of marbles for Zak= $\frac{1}{4}$×32

                                    =8 marbles
