Answer:

  48

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the ratio of raisins to M&Ms by 20, we find there are a total of 80 M&Ms in the bag.

 raisins : M&Ms = 1 : 4 = 20 : 80

The ratio of peanut to plain M&Ms is 2 : 3, a total of 2+3 = 5 ratio units. These stand for a total of 80 M&Ms, so each ratio unit of M&Ms stands for 80/5 = 16 M&Ms. That is ...

  peanut : plain = 2 : 3 = 32 : 48

There are 48 plain M&Ms in the bag.

There as 16 cards, 2 of which are wildlife cards, so the ratio is 16 : 2. We can simplify it by dividing both sides by 2, so we'll get the ratio of 8 : 1.

I hope this helps! :)
