HOPE THIS HELPED!
Let R and B be the number of red and blue marbles respectively.
Then,
R+B = 36
R:B = 5:4
Therefore,
Ratio of red marbles = 5/9
Ratio of blue marbles = 4/9
This means,
R = 5/9*36 = 20 marbles
B = 4/9*36 = 16 marbles
If one blue marble is removed from the bag, the new B= 16-1 = 15 blue marbles and the new total of marbles in the bag = 36-1 = 35 marbles.
The new ratios are
R = 20/35 =4/7
B = 15/35 = 3/7
That is, R:B = 4:3
The reasoning of the student is wrong. When a marble is removed, both the number of blue marbles changes as well as the total of the marbles in the bag. In other words, both the values in the ratio reduce by 1.

Answer:
C. 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Add LM and MN
(3x + 5) + (4x + 7)
(4x + 3x) + (5 + 7)
7x + 12
As we know the total is 33
So,
7x + 12 = 33
Subtract 12 from 33, which gives me 21
Now,
7x = 21
To make x alone, divide both sides by 7, and then we will get x = 3
If x = 3
LM = 3x + 5
= (3*3) + 5
= 9 + 5
= 14
