Question

The ratio of red to green to blue sweets in a packet is 2:3:1. If there are 18 green sweets, how many blue sweets are there?

Answer 1

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio be 2x, 3x, 1x

ATQ,

Green Sweets = 18 = 3x

x = 18/3

x = 6

2x = 2×6 = 12 (Red)

3x = 3×6 = 18 (Green)

1x = 1×6 = 6 (Blue)
