205 marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information in this problem, it is possible for us to realize that the weight of 15 marbles is 43.35 g and the idea is to calculate the number of marbles in 592.45 g, so we can use the following setup:

`(15marbles)/(43.35g) =(x)/(592.45g)`

And we solve for x as follows:

`x=(15marbles*592.45g)/(43.35g) \\\\x=205marbles`
