Answer:

Hey mate here is your answer.//

Step-by-step explanation:

In a bag of balls, 1/4th are green, 1/8th are blue, 1/12th are yellow and the remaining 26 are white. How many balls are blue?

There are 4 colours of balls - green, blue, yellow and white.

Add (1/4)+(1/8)+(1/12) = (6/24)+(3/24)+(2/24) = 11/24 so the balance or (24–11)/24 = 13/24 = 26 white. Hence the total number of balls are 2*24 = 48.

Of the 48 balls, green are (1/4)*48 = 12, blue are (1/8)*48 = 6, yellow are (1/12)*48 = 4 and the rest, white are 26.

Check: Total number of balls = 12+6+4+26 = 48

Answer: 6 balls are blue.

Correct Question

In a bag full of small balls; 1/4 of these balls are green 1/8 are blue 1/12 are yellow and remaining white are 26. How many are blue?

Answer

Number of blue balls = 6

Explanation-

Let us assume that there are x balls in the bag.

A bag full of small balls, in which 1/4 of the balls are green.

Number of green of balls = x/4

Similarly, there are 1/8 blue balls and 1/12 yellow balls in the bag.

Number of blue balls = x/8

Number of yellow balls = x/12

Now,

Number of balls = Number of green balls + Number of blue balls + Number of yellow balls

⇒ x/4 + x/8 + x/12

⇒ (6x + 3x + 2x)/24

⇒ 11x/24

Also given in question that, remaining balls in the bag are white; which are 26.

Substitute the known values

⇒ x = 11x/24 + 26

⇒ x - 11x/24 = 26

⇒ (24x - 11x)/24 = 26

⇒ 13x/24 = 26

⇒ x/24 = 26/13

⇒ x/24 = 2

⇒ x = 48

Therefore,

There are total 48 balls in the bag.

But we have to find the number of blue balls.

So, Number of blue balls in the bag = 48/8

⇒ Number of blue balls = 6
