Answer 2

Vie's bracelets would have a blue bead ratio of 3/10, a yellow bead ratio of 1/10, and the simplified remaining ratio for orange beads would be 3/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Vie wants each bracelet to have a ratio of 3/10 blue beads and 1/10 yellow beads, the combined ratio of blue and yellow beads would be 3/10 + 1/10 = 4/10. To find the ratio of orange beads, we have to consider that the ratios of all beads must add up to 1, or 10/10, since we are working with the ratios of the whole bracelet. Therefore, the remaining ratio for orange beads would be 10/10 - 4/10 = 6/10. Simplifying this ratio by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the common factor of 2, we get 3/5.

The remaining ratio of orange beads for each bracelet is therefore 3/5.
