Answer:
12
Explanation:
In the bag, the guaranteed ratio of peanut to raisin = 5:2
Number of peanuts = 30
Let the number of raisins =x
We therefore have that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5\colon2=30\colon x \\ \frac{5}{2}=\frac{30}{x} \\ 5x=30\times2 \\ x=\frac{30\times2}{5} \\ x=12 \end{gathered}[/tex]The number of raisins in the bag is 12.
