Answer:106
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of white marbles be w
Let number of red marbles be r
w+r = 126---------1
w = 6 +5r-----------2
Put eqn 2 in eqn 1
6+ 5r + r = 126
6 + 6r = 126
6r = 120
r = 20
w = 6 +5r =6+100
= 106
50779 / 590 = 86.06610169
But, you can round this to equal 86.1.
<span>Let x equal your repeating decimal. Call this equation x = 1.273
</span><span>Multiply both sides of your previous expressions by 100. Call this equation 100x = 127.273
</span><span>Subtract 1 from both sides of the equation to get 99x = 126.
</span><span>Divide both sides of the equation by 99 to get 126/99.
</span><span>126/99 reduced is to its lowest terms is 1 and 3/11.
