Your job is to sort and sack marbles for sale. A bag contains 55 marbles, some red and some green. If there are 11 red marbles, what is the ratio of red to green marbles?

total of 55 marbles.....if there are 11 red marbles, then there are (55 - 11) = 44 green marbles. So the ratio of red marbles to green marbles is :
11:44 which reduces to 1:4 or 1/4 or 1 to 4
