Question

A bag contains 150 marbles. Some are blue the rest is white. There are 21 blue marvles for every 4 white marbles. How many blue marbles are there.

Answer 1

There are 126 blue marbles.

Total marbles in the bag=150

There are 21 blue marbles for every 4 white marbles then the sequence will be⇒ 4+21+4+21+4+21+4+21+4+21+4+21=150

21 blue marbles appear 6 times for every 4 blue marbles

So 21×6=126 blue marbles and 4×6=24, then 126+24=150 total marbles

∴There will be a total of 126 blue marbles along with 24 white marbles among the 150 marbles.
