(a) 32 orange marbles
the ratio of red : blue = 18 : 48 = 3 : 8 ( in simplest form )
the ratio of green : orange = 3 : 8 ( equal ratio )
divide green by 3 to obtain 1 part of ratio then multiply this value by 8 to obtain the amount of orange marbles
3 parts → 12
8 parts → 12 × = 32 orange marbles
Answer:
Greater than (>)
Step-by-step explanation:
Last week, Jason ran 26.1 miles.
He wants to run further this week.
<u>Distance Run this week</u>
Total Distance this week =2.4+4p+2.4
Since his distance this week is going to be greater than the total distance covered last week (26.1 miles), we then have:
Total Distance covered this week > Total Distance Last week
Jason should use the greater than inequality sign.
