(b) A bag contains 54 red marbles and some blue marbles. 36% of the marbles in the bag are red. Find the number of blue marbles in the bag.​

Answer 1

This method is proposition method hope you will understand it more clearer

No. of red marbles = 54

% of red marbles = 36

No. of blue marbles = x

% of blue marbles = 100-36

54:36::x:64

to find x

36 *x = 54 ×64

x= 3456/36

x= 96

Hence forth number of blue marbles in the bag are 96 ,, I hope this helped u if so please like n comment
