3/5 proportion of the bag of sweets are marshmallows , when picked 3 times as many smarties as cola bottles and  twice as many marshmallows as smarties.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say Cola Bottles  =   C

Henry picks 3 times as many smarties as cola bottles

=> Smarties = 3C

Hencry picks twice as many marshmallows as smarties

=>  marshmallows = 2 (3C)  = 6C

Total Seets in Bag = C + 3C + 6C = 10C

marshmallows / Total Sweets  =  6C / 10C  =  6/10

= 3/5

3/5 proportion of the bag of sweets are marshmallows
