Solution:

There were 30 marbles in the back of these 20 or blue and the rest are yellow

20 blue marbles

10 yellow marbles

a) For a game, each marble was chosen and 4/5 of the 20 blue marbles was chosen, i.e.


=(4)/(5)*20=16

16 blue marbles was chosen

That means,


1-(4)/(5)=(1)/(5)

1/5 yellow marbles was chosen,


(1)/(5)*10=2

The number of bag's marble chosen is


16+2=18

Hence, the number of bag's marble chosen is 18

b) For the number of blue marbles not chosen


=20-16=4

Hence, the number of blue marbles not chosen is 4

c) The number of yellow marbles chosen is 2
