Question

Clothing store A sells T-shirts in only three colors: red, blue and green. The colors are in the ratio of 3 to 4 to 5. If the store has 20 blue T-shirts, how many T-shirts does it have altogether?

Answer 1

Answer:

altogether 60 t shirts

Answer 2

Given:

Ration of Red:Blue:Green T-shirt is 3:4:5

Blue T-shirts = 20

To Find:

Total number of T-shirts

Solution:

Let us take the number of Red Blue and Green T-shirts as

3x, 4x, 5x

Number of Blue T-shirts = 4x

=> 4x = 20

=> x = 5

So,

Total number of Red T-shirts= 3*5

= 15

Total number of Green T-shirts = 5*5

= 25

Total number of T-shirts = 15+20+35

= 60

Hence, The total number of T-shirts taken together is 60.
