Answer 2

Given :- The ratio of pencils to markers in a bucket is 4 to 7. There are 24 pencils in the bucket .

To Find :- Total number of pencils and markers combined in this bucket ?

F) 66

G) 42

H) 31

J) 35

Solution :-

→ Total pencils : Total markers = 4 : 7

So, let us assume that, there are 4x pencils and 7x markers in the bucket .

So,

→ Total pencils = 24

→ 4x = 24

dividing both sides by 4,

→ x = 6

therefore,

→ Total pencils + Total markers = 4x + 7x = 11x = 11 × 6 = 66 (F) (Ans.)

Hence, the total number of pencils and markers combined in this bucket are 66 .
