Jemma has 24 balls. Out of the 24 balls, 12 are yellow, 4 are pink, and the rest are red. What is the ratio of the number of red balls to the number of balls that are either yellow or pink?

Number of red balls = 24 - (12 + 4)
= 24 - 16 = 8

Balls other than the red = 12 + 4= 16

Ratio = 8/16 = 1/2

In short, Your Answer would be 1/2

Hope this helps!
