Answer 1

Answer:

the  number of black tokens in the bag is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of black tokens in the bag is as followS

Given that

There is 8 green tokens

and, the ratio of green tokens to black tokens is 4:1

So let us assume the black tokens be x

So,

$\frac{8}{x} = \frac{4}{1}$

Now do the cross multiplication

x = 2 tokens

Hence, the  number of black tokens in the bag is 2
