Answer:

The simplified ratio of ALL the pens to pencils is

= 3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

A canister holds 3 blue pens, 4 black pens, 2 red pens, and 6 pencils.

Step 1

Sum of all the pens is:

Blue pens + Black pens + Red pens

= 3 + 4 + 2

= 9 pens

Number of pencils = 6 pencils

Step 2

The simplified ratio of ALL the pens to pencils is

Pens : Pencils

= 9 : 6

= 3:2

Answer :
M = 135

Step by Step Explanation :
See the photo attached :) it’s kinda hard to explain in words but you cancel out the 36.50 by subtracting it on both sides, and then the equation becomes 13.50 = 0.10m. Since we have to get the m by itself, you cancel out the 0.10 by subtracting on both sides, and it leaves you with 135 = m
