Answer 1

Answer:

680

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of red to white 4 : 7

Number of white = 280

White + red buttons = x

7x / 11 = 280

7x = 280 * 11

7x = 3080

x = 3080 / 7

x = 440

Number of red buttons 440 - 280 = 160

Number of red bottons ;

Blue + red buttons = x

3 : 2 ; blue : red

3 + 2 = 5 ;

2x / 5 = 160

2x = 160 * 5

2x = 800

x = 800 / 2

x = 400

Number of Blue buttons :

400 - 160 = 240

Total :

White + red + blue

280 + 160 + 240 = 680 buttons
