Question

if there is ratio, 5:7, for blue and red chips respectively, and the total of all the chips in the bag is 60, find how many blue and red chips are in the bag

Answer 1

Answer:  your required answer is :-

let , the blue chips be 5x and red chips be 7x

total chips in the bag = 60

then ,,

5x + 7x = 60

12x = 60

x = 60 /  12

x = 5

so ,, blue chips = 5x

                          = 5 * 5

                          = 25

        red chips = 7x

                         = 7*5

                         = 35

hope this helps you dear ..
