a)The number of marbles they have altogether willl be 230.
b)The no of marbles that must be given to Pete will be 32.
A ratio is an ordered pair of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A percentage is a mathematical expression in which two ratios are specified to be equal.
Let the no of marble Pete, ben and Leon will have x,y, and z respectively.
From the given condition;
y = 30+x
z=2x
z:y=6:5
z:y=6:5
y=5z/6
Substitute the obtained values;
[tex]\rm \frac{5z}{6} = 30+\frac{z}{2} \\\\ \frac{5z}{6} =30+\frac{z}{2} \\\\ \frac{10z-6z}{12} =30\\\\\ z=90[/tex]
Substitute the value we get;
x=45
y=95
The no of marble they have all together;
⇒x+y+z
⇒45+95+90
⇒230
If all the marble has to be distributed in an equal manner. The equivalent no of marble for everyone is;
n=(45+95+90)/3
n=76.66≈77
The no of marbles must be given to pete so that the boys are to share the marbles equally;
⇒77-45
⇒32
The number of marbles they have altogether willl be 230 and the no of marbles that must be given to Pete will be 32.
