If there are ten black pens, eight blue pens, and twenty pens in total, then there are 2 red pens. This means that the ratio of red to black is 2:10=1:5. Hope this helps!

Answer:  The ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens = 1:5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total pens in package = 20

Number of black pens = 10

Number of blue pens = 8

Number of red pens =   (Total pens in package) - (Number of black pens ) -(Number of blue pens )

= 20-10-8

=2

Now , the ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens =

Number of red pens : Number of black pens

=2 : 10

= 1 :5  [Dividing both sides by 2]

Thus , the ratio represents the number of red pens to black pens = 1:5.

2<br>Decrease R420 in the ratio 4:7​
Oxana [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are 4x and 7x. According to the question if each number is increased by 20, the ratio becomes 7 : 9.

Then,

( 4x + 20 ) : ( 7x + 20 ) = 7 : 9

9( 4x + 20 ) = 7( 7x + 20 )

9( 4x ) + 9( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) + 7( 20 )

9( 20 ) - 7( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) - 9( 4x )

2( 20 ) = 49x - 36x

40 = 13 x

40 / 13 = x

Therefore, number are :–

4 x = 4( 40 / 13 ) = 160 / 13

7 x = 7( 40 / 13 ) = 280 / 13
