<span>Red is 'R' while Green is "G" </span>
<span>from the ratio, 5R = 16 G </span>
<span>and the second equation is 6R = G +112 </span>
<span>Lets solve for G in the 2nd equation ----> G = 6R -112 </span>
<span>Plug the G value into the first equation ----> 5R = 16(6R -112) -->R = 19.69 </span>
<span>Plug the R value into the second equation to get G-----> G = 6.14</span>
