First find 2/5 of 25.
This can be done by multiplying the two numbers.
2/5 × 25 = 10

10 is the distance from E to F.
So now that you have EF and know the overall length of EG (25), you can easily find FG.
25 - 10 = 15

The answer is:
d. 15

Count by ones from 368 to 500. Change for a larger unit when necessary.

stepan [7]

We can figure out how many numbers there are from 368 to 500 by subtracting.

500 - 368 = 132

Now, we need to get it in word form. This can be done by looking at the place value of each number.. So your answer would be:

1 hundred, 3 tens, and 2 ones.

Your job is to sort and sack marbles for sale. A bag contains 44 marbles, some red and some green. If there are 11 red marbles,

Answer:

Option C is correct

The ratio of green to red marbles is, 3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement:

A bag contains 44 marbles, some red and some green.

⇒Total marbles = 44

If there are 11 red marbles.

then;

Green marbles = Total marbles - red marbles.

Substitute the given values we have;

Green marbles = 44 - 11 = 33

We have to find the ratio of green to red marbles.

$\frac{\text{Green marbles}}{\text{Red marbles}} = \frac{33}{11} = \frac{3}{1} = 3 : 1$

Therefore, the ratio of green to red marbles is, 3 : 1
