The answer is 6. You can show working by doing:

a/3 = a-2/2

Cross multiply to give you:

2a = 3(a-2)
2a = 3a - 6
-a = -6

So a = 6

A bag contains 25 balls 20 of which are blue what percentage of balls are not blue

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

20/25 = blue

This means 5/25 of the balls in the bag are NOT blue

(25-20 = 5)

We need to convert 5/25 to a percentage

$\dfrac{5}{25} = \dfrac{5\times4}{25\times4}=\dfrac{20}{100}$

% = per cent

"per" means "out of"

"cent" means "one hundred"

20/100 = 20%
