In a bag of marbles, 6 are blue. The probability of picking out a blue marble from the bag is 3/5. How many marbles are in the bag?​

Respuesta :

Answer: 3/5 = (6/10). There are 10 TOTAL marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a question of fractions, you can assume any reasonable number and work with the numbers. We know initially that there are 6 marbles and they are ALL blue and the rest are another color or colors. So BLUE = 6/10 and the other colors 4/10 for 2/5.
