Question

the ratio of pink starburst to yellow starbursts in kels bag 25% What precept of the whole bag contains pink Starburst

Answer 1

Answer:

Pink Starburst occupies 20% of the total bag space

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ratio of pink (P) starburst to yellow (Y) starbursts $= 0.25$

Mathematically, it can be written as

$\frac{P}{Y} = 0.25\\Y = \frac{P}{0.25} \\Y = 4P$

Then the % space taken by pink startburt is equal

$\frac{P}{4P + P} \\= \frac{P}{5P}\\= \frac{1}{5}\\= 0.2$

Hence, Pink Starburst occupies 20% of the total bag space
