(a) 32 orange marbles
the ratio of red : blue = 18 : 48 = 3 : 8 ( in simplest form )
the ratio of green : orange = 3 : 8 ( equal ratio )
divide green by 3 to obtain 1 part of ratio then multiply this value by 8 to obtain the amount of orange marbles
3 parts → 12
8 parts → 12 × = 32 orange marbles
1) C is because it’s exactly double the size in both width and length while the others are only gaining one or the other. For example - the a length of the squares is 5 and the length on c is 10, the base on a is 3 long, the base on c is 6. The width on a is 1 and the width on c is 2. You can put these into fractions 5/10 3/6 1/2 but they all equal 1/2. So it’s double the size of a.
First you need to multiply the number on the outside of the parentheses to what's inside. Then you need to subtract 1440 from both sides. After that you need to get all of the u's on one side so you subtract 256u from -160u and then you divide 832 by 96.
