If the ratio of purple marbles to orange marbles is 3 to 8, how many orange marbles will I have if I have 48 purple marbles?
2 answers:
Answer:
You will have 128 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as an equation
Variable x = number of orange marbles
3/8 = 48/x
Cross multiply
3 × x = 8 × 48
3x = 384
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable
3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3
1x = 128
x = 128
128 orange marbles
Check work:
Substitute the variable x for the answer
3/8 = 48/128
Cross multiply
3 × 128 = 8 × 48
384 = 384
If the numbers equal, the answer is correct

=(9x+−4x)+(−12+2)
=5x+−10
