Big marbles = 45red 3/4 blue
Small marbles = 2/5 red 3/5 blue 24 more small blue mabrles than red marbles
What percentage of the marbles are big marbles
First of all lets working out the missing values:
Big Marbles, 45 red, 3/4 blue. If 45 red is 1/4, then 135 (45*3) is 3/4.
Big Marbles, 45 red, 135 blue = 180 in total
For the small marbles, we do some logical thinking:
If red is 2/5, and blue is 3/5. And blue has 24 more than red.
That means 24 = 1/5
So in total there are 120 small marbles (24*5)
There are 180 big marbles
We add these together, 120 + 180 = 300 marbles
180 / 300 = 0.6 = 60%
^ Divide the big marbles by the number of total marbles
60% of the marbles are big marbles

Answer:
you can simplify rations just like you simplify fractions. Whenever you are able to evenly divide both parts of the ratio with out changing the equation's answer, you are able to.
for example
if it were 3:6, you can simplify this by dividing these both by 3, leaving you with 1:2.
