Question

A bag contains white,blue and red balls ratio8:3:2 and there are 10 red balls,if 10 white balls and 10 blue balls are removed from the bag.Find the new ratio of the balls.

Answer 1

Answer:

New ratio ( white,blue and red) = 6:1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Old ratio ( white,blue and red) = 8:3:2

Number of red balls = 10

Removed balls = 10 white , 10 blue

Find:

New ratio ( white,blue and red)

Computation:

Assume total number of balls = x

So,

Number of total balls = 2x / 13 = 10

Number of total balls = 65

Number of white balls = 40

Number of blue balls = 15

So,

Number of new white balls = 40 - 10 = 30

Number of new blue balls = 15 - 10 = 5

New ratio ( white,blue and red) = 30 : 5 : 10

New ratio ( white,blue and red) = 6:1:2
